Following years of complaints about website glitches and its 'dynamic pricing' system, Ticketmaster is facing criticism like never before after its sale of Taylor Swift concert tickets devolved into utter chaos this week. Sky-high: The cost of ticket sales for major artists' concerts have sky-rocketed of late - with the cost of entrance to many big stars' gigs going up by more than 1,000 per cent Bad era: Ticketmaster is currently under fire following their botched handling of the Taylor Swift The Eras tour, which saw the site crash repeatedly and the process descend into a fiasco 'The goal is to give the most passionate fans fair and safe access to the most in-demand tickets while allowing the artists and everyone involved in staging live events to price tickets closer to their fair value.' Bruce Springsteen: From $100 to $5,000 Big cost: Fans of Bruce Springsteen were furious when they learned that tickets to his 2023 tour were going for as high as $5,000 due to Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing system Breaking the bank: Furious fans shared screenshots of floor seats they wanted which cost $5,000 with additional fees attached Excitement for Bruce Springsteen’s 2023 US arena tour quickly turned to frustration after tickets for the first six dates went made available for purchase on July 20. Olivia Rodrigo: From $150 to $4,090 Breakout star: Olivia Rodrigo became pop's new starlet during the pandemic and fans were furious to see the ticket prices for her first tour costing thousands of dollars Furious: Some fans called out resellers for buying tickets at their lowest prices and reselling them for many times their face value Many of Olivia Rodrigo’s fans ended up disappointed and frustrated in 2021 after Ticketmaster's technical difficulties kept them from buying the coveted tickets when they went on sale. Adele: From $100 to $12,000 In the blink of an eye: Ticketmaster's Verified Fan presale tickets for Adele's Las Vegas residency sold out in minutes before hiking up in price Big range: One fan shared a screenshot of prices that appeared to show the cheapest seats for $85 before fees, while seats close to the stage cost over $680 However, Ticketmaster isn’t the only place that’s left fans with empty wallets after tickets for Adele Las Vegas residency were going for $25,000 on StubHub before she suddenly cancelled the dates.
