A venue-controlled resale market in the music industry refers to a system where the venue or primary ticket seller manages the resale of tickets for their events. This aims to combat ticket scalping and ensure fair pricing for fans, often by setting price caps or facilitating direct fan-to-fan resales through official channels. This approach allows venues to maintain control over their inventory and potentially generate additional revenue from resales, while also enhancing the fan experience by providing a secure and legitimate platform for ticket exchanges.
