Ticketmaster Claims $750 Olivia Dean Concert Ticket Was a 'Typo'

Fans were outraged after seeing that presale tickets to Olivia Dean’s concert next summer were listed on Ticketmaster for over $750 — but the ticketing giant shared that was actually a “typo.”

A fan posted the egregious price tag on social media, showing that a seat was listed for $753.45 in the upper-level seating of Boston’s TD Garden next August on Dean’s “The Art of Loving Live.”

Ticketmaster responded, “thanks for catching this – this price was a typo.”

“It has been fixed to reflect the correct $53.45 all in price, and any refunds for the difference have already been issued,” Ticketmaster said.

While the ticketer may have made a typo this time, it’s certainly not the first instance that fans were left overwhelmed by mind-boggling ticket prices.

Rising ticket prices have been a never-ending topic across the industry. From Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter to Sleep TokenGhost, and Green Day, fans have lashed-out at Ticketmaster for the same scenario. Fans trying to purchase tickets to any big-name act on Ticketmaster are stuck struggling through the ticketer’s online queue, face error codes and long-wait times. Then, when they finally reach checkout (if they ever do) those tickets are gone — or priced so high that fans just give up.

To make matters worse, Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino downplayed consumer frustration over rising ticket costs earlier this year, calling them “underpriced.”

“In sports, I joke it’s like a badge of honor to spend [$70,000] for Knicks courtside,” Rapino said. “When you read about the ticket prices going up, it’s still an average concert price [of] $72. Try going to a Laker game for that, and there’s 80 of them [in a season].”

His comments have sparked backlash across the internet — from not only fans, but also musicians, including acclaimed music producer Jack Antonoff.

Unfortunately, fans might not see comedown on ticket prices anytime soon. Live Nation has continued its stranglehold on the industry, with revenue climbing 11% from last year to $8.5 billion and adjusted operating income (AOI) up 14% to $1.03 billion during its third quarter report this year.
