- No failure or delay on the part of any of the parties to these conditions relating to the exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy provided under these conditions shall operate as a waiver of such right, power, privilege or remedy or as a waiver of any breach by the other party to these conditions.
Force Majeure
- We shall have no liability to you for any failure to deliver or supply tickets or other goods or services you have ordered or any delay in doing so or for any failure to commence or complete any Event or for any damage or defect or loss arising from any tickets provided or the execution of any Event that is caused by any event or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
Governing Law
- Our websites and our Official Advertisements are controlled, produced and operated by The Guildhall Trust from our offices in the United Kingdom. The Guildhall Trust makes no representations that the materials and information displayed on or accessible via our website are appropriate or available for use in other locations and access to them from jurisdictions where their contents are illegal is prohibited. The contract between us and you shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with English law, and the English courts shall have jurisdiction to resolve any disputes.
Entire Agreement
- These terms and conditions, together with the terms and conditions of the use of our website and the prices, delivery details and contact details set out on our website, set out the whole of our agreement relating to the supply of the tickets and any other goods or services to you by us. These terms and conditions cannot be varied except in writing signed by one of our directors. In particular nothing said by any sales person on behalf of us should be understood as a variation of these terms and conditions or as an authorised representation about the nature or quality of the tickets, goods or services offered for sale by us. We accept no liability for any such representation being untrue or misleading.
EVENT CANCELLATIONS AND ALTERATIONS
- If an event is cancelled, rescheduled or materially altered, we will use reasonable endeavours to notify you once we have received the relevant information and authorisation from our Event Partner. However, we cannot guarantee that you will be informed of such cancellation, rescheduling or alteration before the date of the event. It is your responsibility to ascertain whether an event has been cancelled, rescheduled or altered and the date and time of any rescheduled event.
- Cancellation: If an event for which you have purchased Tickets or Packages is cancelled in full (and not rescheduled), your order will be cancelled, and you will be refunded the Sale Price of your Tickets or Packages (Service Charges and Order Processing Fees may be non-refundable). If you have purchased Tickets or Packages for an event takes place over several days and one or more days (but not all days) are cancelled, you may only be offered a proportionate partial refund.
- Rescheduling: If an event for which you have purchased Tickets or Packages is rescheduled, Tickets and Packages will usually be valid for the new date. If you notify us within the specified deadline that you are unable to attend the rescheduled event, you will be able to cancel your order and obtain a refund of the Sale Price of your Tickets or Packages (Service Charges and Order Processing Fees are non-refundable). Failure to notify us within any specified deadline that you are unable to attend the rescheduled event will be deemed to be a reconfirmation of your order for Tickets or Packages for the rescheduled event, and you will not be able to claim a refund.
- Material Alteration: If an event for which you have purchased Tickets or Packages is “materially altered” (as defined in clause5 below), Tickets and Packages will usually be valid for the altered event (or you will be offered Tickets or Packages of a value corresponding with your original Tickets or Packages for the altered event, subject to availability). If you notify us within the specified deadline that you do not wish to attend the altered event, you will be able to cancel your order and obtain a refund of the Sale Price of your Tickets or Packages (Service Charges and Order Processing Fees are non-refundable). Failure to notify us within any specified deadline that you do not wish to attend the altered event will be deemed to be a reconfirmation of your order for Tickets or Packages for the altered event, and you will not be able to claim a refund.
- For the purposes of this Purchase Policy, a “material alteration” is a change (other than a rescheduling) which, in our and the relevant Event Partner’s reasonable opinion, makes the event materially different to the event that purchasers of Tickets, taken generally, could reasonably expect. In particular, please note that the following are not deemed to be “material alterations”: adverse weather conditions; changes of any supporting act; changes to individual members of a band; changes to the line-up of any multi-performer event (such as a festival); curtailment of the event where the majority of an event is performed in full; and delays to the starting of the performance of an event.
- To claim a refund under the above stated clause, please follow the instructions we provide to you.
- Refunds will be made using the same means of payment as you used for the initial purchase.
- If you have purchased any Upsells associated with an event which has been cancelled, rescheduled or materially altered and a refund in relation to the Tickets is due to you in accordance with clause the above clauses, unless the Upsell is a product and has already been delivered to you we will also refund you the Sale Price of such Upsells purchased from us. However, nothing in this clause 11 shall operate to exclude your statutory right to cancel orders for Upsells other than Excluded Upsells.
