From the source record
Covered online sellers would show the total ticket price and mandatory fees before a buyer selects a ticket.Texas Legislature Online, introduced SB 42 ↗
The city lists tickets for Weihnachtsmarkt activities at its Civic & Convention Center for sale online. Its calendar places the 2026 activities on Nov. 19–22, making local online event sales a concrete example of the purchases the proposed statewide rule addresses.
The introduced bill applies to websites and apps selling or reselling tickets to covered Texas events. It would require a clear disclosure of the total cost and the dollar amount attributable to mandatory ancillary fees before ticket selection. It also would prohibit misleading fee disclosures and price increases during purchase, with an exception for a reasonable, disclosed fee for nonelectronic delivery.
San Antonio Express-News first reported it.
Sen. Judith Zaffirini filed SB 42 on Nov. 9. The introduced text proposes a Sept. 1, 2027, effective date. Readers can follow the bill’s legislative history for its next action and any revised text; the filed proposal does not state a dollar amount that ticket buyers would save.
