At Red Rocks Amphitheater, Governor Polis signed HB24-1378 - Consumer Protection in Event Ticket Sales, sponsored by Representatives William Lindstedt and Alex Valdez, and Senators Tom Sullivan and Bob Gardner to protect Colorado consumers from ticket scam sales, ensuring Coloradans can enjoy Colorado’s world-class music and events scene without fear of being scammed.
