Ticket Reselling Prohibited in Mexico

Profeco's head, Iván Escalante, stated that ticket reselling is illegal in Mexico, unlike in the US and Canada, preventing a traditional resale platform.


The head of Profeco, Iván Escalante, explained that in Mexico, ticket reselling is not legal, unlike in the United States and Canada, which is why it was not possible to implement a traditional resale platform. He noted that in those countries, such a practice is permitted, which allows for the creation of special platforms for the secondary ticket market. However, Mexico has different legal norms that prohibit such operations, which creates certain difficulties for event organizers and attendees.
