The regional administrative court
(TAR) of Lazio on Friday quashed a one-million-euro fine served
by Italy's anti-trust authority on Ticketone for secondary
ticketing violations on some of Italy's biggest concerts in the
last few years.
The concerts of One Direction, Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili
Peppers, Bruce Springsteen, Renato Zero, Adele, David Gilmour,
Coldplay, U2, and Ed Sheeran were among those involved in five
different probes.
Ticketone still has an exclusive on tickets for this kind of
events, the anti-trust body said.
Ticketone had said it would appeal to TAR, calling the
anti-trust claims that it failed to prevent multiple purchases
by Web clients "insubstantial".
