Rachel Reeves has blamed the 'security' fears for accepting tickets for one Sabrina Carpenter performance worth around £ 600.
The Chancellor said that accepting the Freebie in the O2arena for her and a 'family member' the 'right to do' was.
She argued that they were 'not tickets that you could buy' – although she emphasized that the value will be explained in transparency registers.

Sir Keir was also a whole series of top politicians to receive free tickets and hospitality for the performances of Taylor Swift in London last summer.
He later paid back more than £ 6,000 in gifts and promised – together with deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and Mrs. Reeves – not to accept any further donations for clothing.
Asked about the Sabrina Carpenter concert on the BBCs on Sunday with Laura Kuensberg program, said Mrs. Reeves: 'I went with a member of my family to see a concert a few weeks ago.
'I now have safety, which means that it is not as easy as it would have been in the past to just be in a concert, although that would probably be a lot easier for everyone.
'So look, I took those tickets to go with a member of my family. I thought that was the right thing to do from a security perspective. '
The Chancellor added: 'These were not tickets for which you could pay, so there was no price for those tickets.
“Of course I will explain the value of it, but they were not tickets you could buy.”
It is, however, understood that the indicated value of the hospitality will be around £ 600, although comparable tickets for the occurrence of hand would be for higher prices.
