StubHub facing potential class-action lawsuit in Canada
Summary
On Wednesday, Vancouver resident Mark Gallagher filed a civil claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia alleging that StubHub breaches its FanProtect Guarantee by not providing timely, valid, or comparable tickets and refusing refunds or comparable alternatives. The claim cites specific incidents involving World Cup tickets purchased in March 2026, where Gallagher did not receive the tickets despite promises and was left without entry to the games. The proposed class action seeks to represent anyone who entered into a distance contract for a resale ticket with StubHub or its affiliates in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, or Ontario since March 31, 2025, and suffered damages such as travel costs, lost income, or the difference in ticket value. Gallagher is seeking monetary relief and punitive damages, but the suit must first be certified by the court.
