A parliamentary inquiry into Australia’s ailing live music industry has proposed that the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission keep an eye on the sector for any anti-competitive behaviors. The inquiry has also called for measures to address the issue of “extreme dynamic pricing.”

It’s great to see the parliamentary inquiry taking steps to address the challenges facing Australia’s live music sector. Monitoring the industry for anti-competitive conduct is essential to ensure fair competition and promote a healthier ecosystem for artists and venues alike. Extreme dynamic pricing can alienate fans and make live events less accessible, so it’s crucial to find a balance that supports both artists and audiences. I hope these recommendations lead to positive changes that enhance the live music experience for everyone involved.
