Re: Vivid Seats Inc. – Registration Statement on Form S-1

To the addressee set forth above:

We have acted as special counsel to Vivid Seats, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the resale from time to time by the selling stockholders named in the Registration Statement (as defined below) of up to 7,776,629 shares (the “Shares”) of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company. The Shares are included in a registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 4, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”). This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement or the related prospectus (the “Prospectus”), other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issue of the Shares.

As such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of this letter. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company and others as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We are opining herein as to General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we express no opinion with respect to any other laws.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

December 4, 2023
