ticket pricing
Event cost determination
Ticket pricing is the practice of setting prices for admission to events, transportation, or attractions.
The term often appears in discussions of dynamic or surge pricing, where costs fluctuate based on demand: The concert's ticket pricing frustrated fans who saw costs triple overnight.
Airlines, sports venues, and entertainment companies treat ticket pricing as both art and science.
