Nevada to tax music events as Vegas becomes festival mecca - The Washington Post: "Last month, state lawmakers voted to impose a 9 percent tax on admissions to most live entertainment events, replacing a two-tier tax rate. The original tax had so many exemptions and exclusions that it became a headache to enforce.
All events in venues with a capacity of 15,000 or more must pay the fee even if they have nonprofit status — a provision that aims to prevent organizers from avoiding the tax by claiming a 501(c)3 exemption.
The measure won’t take effect until October, months after this year’s Electric Daisy Carnival wraps up, but general admission passes that cost about $360 now could soon include a fee of about $32."
