Summary

Live Nation's grip on ticketing, venues, and concert promotion made it the target of one of the biggest blockbuster antitrust cases in the last decade. Taylor M. Owings of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, a former senior antitrust official in the U.S. Department of Justice, walks through the findings in the case, explains how the 2010 Live Nation/Ticketmaster merger set the stage for enforcement, and previews how the concert industry could change as a result of the liability finding. The program also covers lessons learned about antitrust enforcement, including the current roles that federal and state enforcers are playing in bringing cases against monopolists and anticompetitive mergers.
