Ticket Sales: Dynamic Pricing

Lord Foulkes of Cumnock Excerpts

Wednesday 11th September 2024 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Twycross (Lab)]

There is an ongoing investigation by the CMA and it would not be appropriate for me to comment on the specifics of the case. However, we need to look into whether there might be a different pricing system.

[Lord Foulkes of Cumnock (Lab Co-op)]

My Lords, further to the mischievous suggestion made opposite that there might have been some preference for the Government on this matter, can the Minister confirm that, unlike for Covid, there was no VIP lane?

[Baroness Twycross (Lab)]

I am fairly confident. I am humble enough not to count myself as somebody who would have access to that. There were, however, VIP tickets, which were way beyond my means.
