Taylor Swift Fans In France Not Having A 'Love Story' With Ticketmaster, Can't Get Tickets For Concerts
Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
Taylor Swift's concert tour is facing ticketing issues in France due to overwhelming demand, causing Ticketmaster, a subsidiary of Live Nation Entertainment (NYSE:LYV), to temporarily suspend sales. Technical glitches on Ticketmaster's website left fans unable to log in, with a queue of over 700,000 fans trying to secure tickets. This follows similar issues with U.S. shows in November 2022. Live Nation shares are currently trading at $93.14, up 35% year-to-date in 2023.
