Our booking conditions set out clearly and simply the responsibilities which we at Event Travel have to you and you in turn have to us when we make a contract between us. This contract is made when you make a booking and we accept it by written confirmation on these terms. If you make a booking by telephone or via the website, it will be accepted that you agree to these conditions. 1 YOUR CONTRACT WITH EVENT TRAVEL These booking conditions together with our general information form the basis of your contract. Your booking is with Event Travel Ltd. Registered in England No. 3002768. NB: If your booking is made via the internet, you will receive an initial confirmation on screen to print off and a further confirmation of your order via email. Our online Booking Software has been designed to the highest level and is a secure environment to ensure all information given is fully protected. Whilst every measure is in place to ensure that the availability reflects accurately online, in the unlikely event of system failure or in the event that a problem arises, Event Travel will make every attempt to resolve any issues or provide comparable alternatives wherever possible. In the unlikely event of any problem with an online order, Event Travel will contact you at the earliest opportunity. In some cases, a postal confirmation may be sent out to you if requested. All purchases are subject to payment card verification and other security checks and your transaction may be cancelled if it has not passed our verification process. We also reserve the right to cancel bookings which we reasonably suspect to have been made fraudulently. NB: Ticket(s) included in a Package/Experience may have a lower face value than the overall Ticket Package/Experience selling price you pay and represent(s) only an element of the overall Package/Experience price. 3 DEPOSITS/ PAYMENT OF YOUR BALANCE The balance of your Ticket Package/Experience payment must be made no later than 8 weeks before the Date of Commencement of your Booking Arrangements or Event/Concert/Show Date and as outlined and stated on your Booking/Reservation Confirmation Invoice. If you have made your Ticket Package/Experience booking within this period, the full amount is due immediately. If you do not pay by the stipulated date, we reserve the right to cancel your Ticket Package/Experience and levy cancellation charges as listed below (see section 5). If for any reason a payment by cheque is returned unpaid by the issuing bank or has to be represented a charge of £15.00 will be levied to cover bank and administration charges incurred. Once a Deposit has been paid, you may make part payments thereafter if outside the 8 week window. To make payment go to My Customer Login 4 IF YOU CHANGE YOUR TICKET PACKAGE/EXPERIENCE BOOKING Please check the details of your original booking carefully against your confirmation as there is a minimum administration charge of £10.00 for subsequent changes - Any administration costs incurred above this amount will be detailed to you prior to us making the changes on your behalf. Any material amendments made by you within 4 weeks of event date/commencement of arrangements made on your behalf may be treated as a cancellation and the appropriate charges made (see section 5). If you cancel your Ticket Package/Experience booking for all or any member(s) of your party, you must notify us in writing immediately. We will acknowledge this communication and send you an amended booking confirmation or cancellation invoice accordingly. Should you not receive our acknowledgement within 24 Hours during normal offices, please contact us via customersupport . As Event Travel will have made payments for Ticket(s), Merchandise, Hospitality, Accommodation, Travel (where applicable) on your behalf to ensure your booking is secure, cancellation costs will be incurred. The following cancellation charges will therefore apply. Exceptions: - In some instances the initial deposit paid to Event Travel will not cover payments which have been made in good faith by Event Travel on your behalf eg; to Hotels, Transportation Companies and Event Ticket Suppliers etc. and in many cases, bookings/reservations once made on your behalf, with said suppliers, may be non-transferable/refundable. Event Travel therefore reserves the right to recover any out of pocket expenses in these instances, over and above the standard cancellation charges set out below: - NB: Please note optional Cancellation Protection Premiums are non-refundable or any booking/service fee which may apply.
6 OTHER ITEMS You are responsible for ensuring that you adhere to instructions provided by Event Travel in respect to check-in times/arrival/departure points if applicable.

Should the destination for your chosen Ticket Package/Experience require travel outside of your resident country, a full Passport/ID is usually required for travel. Please note that it is the responsibility of the client to be in possession of a Valid Passport/ID with normally a (minimum validity of 6 months) and any Visa that may be required. Long delays in obtaining Passports/ID Cards and Visas can occur, so be sure to apply well in advance of Travel/Event Date.

Event Travel cannot be liable for any loss or expense suffered if you do not adhere to these requirements. 8 ADMISSION AND ATTENDANCE (Subject to Venue and Ticket Conditions) Please be advised the venue reserves the right to refuse admission should patrons breach any terms and conditions of the event or Event Partner. The venue may on occasions have to conduct security searches to ensure the safety of the patrons. There normally will be no pass-outs or re-admissions of any kind. The unauthorised use of photographic and recording equipment is prohibited. Any photos, videos and/or recordings may be destroyed or deleted. Laser pens, mobile phones, dogs (except guide dogs) and a patron's own food and drink may also be prohibited (please check with the venue). You and other ticket holders consent to filming and sound recording as members of the audience. Please be aware Prolonged exposure to noise may damage your hearing. Special effects which may include, without limitation, sound, audio visual, pyrotechnic effects or lighting effects may be featured at an event. 9 OUR OBLIGATION TO YOU Once we have confirmed we have available space on the Ticket Package/Experience of your choice, you will be required to confirm your booking by agreeing to pay a deposit / or full payment. Once payment has been successfully processed you will receive a formal booking confirmation directly thereafter, usually by email. From this time Event Travel has accepted your booking under the Terms and Conditions. Please ensure your email address is entered correctly at time of booking. Please see deposit/payments Section 3. It is also your responsibility to notify us in writing should your email address or contact details change - any change will be duly confirmed as being updated/changed - if you do not receive confirmation from us, no changes have been actioned. 10 IF WE CHANGE YOUR TICKET PACKAGE/EXPERIENCE It is possible that circumstances may arise which make changes to the advertised Ticket Package/Experience. Should this be a fundamental change to the Ticket Type, Date, we will do our very best to offer you an alternative package/experience. In the event that this is not acceptable, a full refund will apply. Should an event/concert/show be cancelled a refund of the ticket will apply – other items associated with the package/experience may still be valid hence we strongly recommend taking out Cancellation Protection which you can select during the booking process. Material Alteration to your Ticket Package/Experience. If an event is materially altered, you will be offered an option to either reconfirm your order for the altered event or to claim a refund within such time as specified by us. Failure to inform us of your decision may result in your order being reconfirmed for the altered event and you will not be entitled to claim a refund. A 'material alteration' is a change which, in our and the Event Organisers reasonable opinion, makes the Event materially different to the Event that purchasers of Ticket Package/Experiences, taken generally, could reasonably expect. The use of understudies in theatre performances and/or any changes of: (i) any supporting act; (ii) members of a band; and/or (iii) the line-up of any multi-performer event (such as a festival) shall not be a material alteration. 11 WHAT HAPPENS TO COMPLAINTS We do try to ensure that your experience with us is as enjoyable as possible.
