Campaigners find 9 in 10 briefs for sale on site have inflated prices
Daily Record
|October 06, 2025
GREEDY touts are ramping up prices on nine out of 10 tickets for Scots gigs on a popular resale site, a probe has found.
A snapshot of traffic on resale ticket site Viagogo shows that more than 95 per cent of briefs on sale are from touts, all listing for above face value.
Some 80 per cent of the tickets at inflated prices are from overseas sellers.
The tours of artists including Lewis Capaldi, Oasis and others have been plagued by touts, with many harvesting tickets using computer programmes.
Campaigners are now calling on the UK Government to hammer touts with a cap on profits on ticket resales which the Daily Record has battled for.
FanFair Alliance, which fights for fairness in ticketing, has looked at Viagogo listings in Scotland, breaking down data in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
They found the listings repeatedly broke UK consumer law.
