So a comedian say, wants to go on tour. His agent books 20 venues, and pays for the hire of the venue and sets the ticket price. If nobody turns up he takes the hit.
The venue then thinks, why should we pay a minimum wage student to sit in front of a computer selling the tickets out of our profit. I know, lets charge an extra fee to cover their wages. Hence the booking fee! |

And the rest MMM!
Concert ticket agencies have all sorts of wonderful add ons, otherwise known as mark ups.  The latest add on invention is a "renovation" fee? 5. What is the renovation levy for? The renovation levy is a permanent feature of the ticket prices for LG Arena and NIA events to ensure that both venues offer superb facilities, attract world class artists and provide customers with fantastic experiences.  The introduction of a levy is commonplace across the ‘live’ industry; for example, the renovation charge applied by many theatres or the charge applied by the 02 Arena, London, which is known as a ‘facilities fee’. The NEC has been in existence for over 30 years - Renovation Levy? Utter Bollocks!!! Don't start me on Viagogo, get me in, and other legal touting orgs |

In the past you could collect tickets from the box office for free.
Not any more. It now costs the same fee to have them posted or collected? |
