Refunds

You will not be entitled to a refund under any other circumstances. Unless the ticket issuer states otherwise, you will not be entitled to a refund of booking fees. Personal arrangements including travel, subsistence and accommodation in relation to the Event which have been made by you are made at your own risk and neither the authorised ticket agent nor Greek Fest will have any liability for any such loss of enjoyment or wasted expenditure in the case of a cancellation, postponement or otherwise. A “Material Alteration” is a change which, within our reasonable opinion, makes the Event materially different to the Event which purchasers of the ticket could reasonably expect. Unless the Event you are attending is a concert with a clear headline act (i.e., not a festival), changes to acts shall not be considered a Material Alteration. A change to performance times is not considered a Material Alteration. A Material Alteration is judged by reference to the nature and billing of each Event. The Event is judged by reference to the overall theme rather than the individual act scheduled to appear. No scheduled acts may be considered as headline acts regardless of their relative fame or prominence on the billing, and so cancellation by an artist will not entitle you to a refund, regardless of their position on the bill.
- In order to claim your refund, please refer to the terms and conditions of the authorised ticket agent from which you purchased your ticket for details of how to claim a refund or to any communication received from the authorised ticket agent and/or us by e-mail, social media or other means. The point of sale may not make a refund if you fail to follow the instructions provided within the notified time frames. Refunds will only be made to the person who purchased the tickets.
- If is your responsibility to check that the Event has not been cancelled, rescheduled, or made the subject of a Material Alteration. Information on such matters will be made available on behalf of Greek Fest as soon as reasonably practicable on the Greek Fest Website and/or at the Event venue. Customers are advised that the website cannot always be updated immediately and that circumstances giving rise to cancellation, postponement or Material Alterations can sometimes arise immediately prior to an Event. We advise that you check before you travel.
- Tickets will not be refunded where they have been used to gain entry to an Event or where you are able to and choose to attend a postponed Event.
- Any reduction in price, discount or promotional offers, either to the face value of the ticket or otherwise, will not qualify for a refund or partial refund.
