1. WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM
TicketSource provides the software system by which Event Organisers make their tickets available for purchase online by you, the Customer.
As the Event Organiser has chosen to use their own merchant service, you are purchasing tickets directly from the Event Organiser.
TicketSource merely facilitates the transaction between you and the Event Organiser. All information and content regarding events on TicketSource is provided and uploaded by the Event Organiser who is delivering the event to you. TicketSource only handles the booking process and collection of payments on behalf of Event Organisers when you purchase tickets online.
2. EVENT INFORMATION
All details of Events including, but not limited to, performance times, venue, ticket prices and seat availability are entered onto the TicketSource website by the Event Organiser. The accuracy of all such information is at all times the responsibility of the Event Organiser.
3. TICKET SALES PROCESS
You can search the TicketSource site by event name, location and/or date to navigate to the specific event in which you are interested. You may then specify:
a) the venue section or price category in which you wish to buy seats;
b) the quantity of seats you wish to buy;
c) where relevant, the position of those seats.
The site will then display the payment due for the seats specified which will include any booking fees or delivery fees (if applicable). You will then be asked to select your preferred method of payment and having entered and submitted credit or debit card details, the Event Organiser's merchant service will charge the card issuer the appropriate amount. On completion of the transaction, the chosen seats will be registered in your name and you will be sent confirmation of booking via email.
Details of the Event Organiser's business name, statement descriptor and contact telephone number are included in your booking confirmation email and eticket.
We recommend that when using the site you ensure that you are only using one browser window. Using multiple browser windows could result in you losing your ticket selection, duplicate charges or timer expiration. When making payment, you must not use the "back" button on your browser as this may cause you to lose your ticket selection or result in a duplicate booking.
4. CURRENCY
Payment for tickets sold through TicketSource are in Euro.
5. ORDER CONFIRMATION
Order confirmation will take the form of a summary web page at the end of the purchase sequence. This will be followed by an booking confirmation email dispatched to you. Both contain details of the tickets purchased and a unique purchase reference number, which acts as your proof of payment and may be used by the Event Organiser as an eticket.
If you do not receive a confirmation number (in the form of a confirmation page or email) after submitting payment information, it is your responsibility to confirm with our Customer Service Department whether or not the order has been completed, as only you may be aware of any problems that may occur during the purchase process. TicketSource will not be responsible for losses (monetary or otherwise) if you assume that an order was not placed because you failed to receive confirmation.
Any ticket-holder unable to present confirmation of purchase in the form of a print out of the email (or web page equivalent) and valid identification indicating they are the individual named on the confirmation may not be admitted to the event, and will not receive a refund.
6. DISPATCH OF TICKETS
Tickets will be issued as etickets, emailed to you immediately following the successful purchase of tickets. You can download the tickets or save them to your Apple or Google Wallet.
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to ensure that correct ticket delivery information is provided (email address) as incorrect information will result in tickets not being successfully delivered. TicketSource will not be held liable for ticket refunds, ticket exchanges or any other costs arising as a result of incorrect information provided by the customer.
If tickets are not received immediately following completion of the booking the purchaser must contact TicketSource prior to the event to enable us to update the contact information and re-send tickets.
7. EXCHANGES AND REFUNDS
Before placing a booking, carefully review your event and ticket selection. Once purchased tickets cannot be exchanged or refunded unless the Event is cancelled, moved to another date, or if details of the Event are significantly changed after a booking is placed (significant changes being a change of headline act (concerts only), performance title, venue or show time).
The varying exchange and refund policies set forth by Event Organisers prohibit TicketSource from initiating exchanges or refunds after a booking is placed or if a ticket is lost or stolen. In the event of such reversal of transaction being desired, you should contact the Event Organiser directly, as they may, at their discretion, agree to your wishes.
As the Event Organiser has chosen to use their own merchant service, the Event Organiser is solely liable for honouring any refunds.
Booking fees whether originally presented as a separate item or included within the stated face value of the ticket are non-refundable unless an event is cancelled or significantly changes (please see point 8).
8. CANCELLED AND POSTPONED EVENTS
It is the responsibility of the Event Organiser to notify you if an event is postponed or cancelled and TicketSource provides Event Organiser’s with the ability to send an email to all ticket-holders. It is the ticket-holders responsibility to ensure that a correct email address is provided to receive event update messages.
It is your responsibility to check whether the Event is going ahead at the scheduled date, time and venue, and TicketSource cannot guarantee that they will inform you of any changes to the event date, time or venue. You must notify TicketSource of an event cancellation no later than the Monday following the event date.

Event Cancellation
If an Event is cancelled by the Event Organiser (i.e. a cancellation due to circumstances beyond the Event Organiser's control), TicketSource will initiate a refund for the purchase price of your tickets and any booking fees. Ticket delivery fees are non-refundable.

You can also notify TicketSource directly if you discover that an event has been cancelled by emailing [email protected] no later than the Monday at noon following the event.

Event Postponed or Change of Venue
If an Event is moved from its advertised venue and / or the date is changed, tickets already purchased may remain valid should you wish to attend the revised Event. If not, TicketSource will initiate a refund for the purchase price and any booking fees. Ticket delivery fees are non-refundable. You must contact TicketSource as soon as possible and no later than one working day prior to the revised event date to request a refund. After this cut-off time, TicketSource is unable to offer refunds and requests should be directed to the event organiser who may refund at their discretion, but this is not guaranteed.
Significant Change to Event Line-up
Should the headline artist (concerts only) not appear or if there is a change to the named performance - as stated in the TicketSource platform at the time of purchase - TicketSource will on request initiate a refund of the purchase price of your tickets and any booking fees. Ticket delivery fees are non-refundable. You must contact us as soon as soon as possible and no later than one working day prior to the event date to request a refund.

Event Specific Refund and Exchange Terms and Conditions

If such terms have been applied, they will be displayed on the booking page for you to read in the course of the booking process and; having been so displayed; shall prevail over the provisions above, meaning that no refund will be due.
9. DONATIONS
Some Event Organisers will provide an option to make a financial donation as part of the booking process. The purchaser is under no obligation to make a donation. Should you add a donation to your booking, TicketSource will forward your donation to the Event Organiser less a 5% administration fee.
Should an event be cancelled and you booked via TicketSource, we will send the request for a refund of the donation however the Event Organiser is solely liable for honouring any refunds.
