The $30 Ticket to Summer promotion comes after the promoter has discontinued the “Lawnie Pass” program. LN and Ticketmaster are currently facing an anti-trust lawsuit regarding its unfair and monopolistic policies. The lawsuit was filed by U.S. Department of Justice on the basis that Live Nation has an illegal monopoly.
