Prohibits persons from knowingly reselling, or offering for resale, admission tickets that the person knows were obtained using software to circumvent or evade a ticket seller's security measures on its internet website, application, phone system, or similar technology, which prohibition is enforceable under the Consumer Protection Act. Establishes a ticket sales license that must be obtained to engage in the business of a ticket seller or ticket reseller. Requires ticket sellers and ticket resellers to make several disclosures to admission tickets consumers. Limits the charging of admission tickets delivery fees and use of "dynamic pricing" for admission tickets sales. Prescribes penalties for violations.
