SB 2125 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Fees - As introduced, enacts the "Tennessee Live Music Support Act." - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 47 and Title 67.

SB 2125, the "Tennessee Live Music Support Act," was introduced but withdrawn on January 23, 2026. If enacted, it would have imposed a 5% surcharge on secondary ticket sales (resales by third parties) for live music and performance events in Tennessee, collected monthly by resellers from their sales revenue. The funds would have been deposited into a dedicated grant fund to support live music venues, promoters, and performers through economic development programs. The bill would have directly affected third-party ticket resellers (like StubHub or Ticketmaster resale platforms) and applied to events starting July 1, 2027.
