Refunds and Exchanges

Tickets

All our tickets are non-refundable unless a performance is cancelled. If the performance is not Sold Out we may be able to resell or exchange tickets, with at least 48 hours notice of the original performance. If you are unable to attend due to COVID/Self Isolating we will offer a refund. Booking Fees and Commissions cannot be refunded. 

What happens if a show or event is cancelled?

As soon as we find out if a show has been cancelled our Box Office staff will contact you, with the details you provided us when first booking tickets. We can offer to exchange the tickets or may offer a refund, depending on the circumstances.

Can I resale my tickets on another website or on social media?
