HI HB2012

Prohibits selling tickets to events in Hawaii for more than the face value plus applicable taxes and reasonable service charges not exceeding 400% of the ticket price.

Requires ticket sales to not commence before 8:00 a.m. Hawaiian standard time or before the primary ticket seller begins sales, whichever is later.

Mandates that websites selling tickets disclose they are not the primary seller, provide full refunds if events are canceled or tickets not delivered timely, and clearly state ticket prices may exceed original value.

Requires primary ticket sellers to disclose all applicable taxes and fees on the same page as ticket price and disclose total available tickets on a public website or venue box office.

Makes circumvention of online ticket purchase security measures through computer software a misdemeanor and classifies ticket scalping violations as unfair and deceptive trade practices.
