Tickets for shows that have yet to be rescheduled will not be eligible for refunds until new dates are announced.

For AEG events canceled due to the coronavirus, fans can expect an automatic refund.

AEG Presents promotes thousands of concerts and music events each year, including Coachella, Stagecoach, Hangout Fest and more.

AEG’s refund policy announcement follows a $5 million class action lawsuit filed against StubHub over the secondary ticketing platform’s policy change to only offer coupons worth 120% of the purchase price of purchased tickets in lieu of refunds. StubHub’s refund policy went into effect March 20 — after most large gathering bans were enacted across the U.S. due to the coronavirus pandemic.
