When you purchase a ticket to a Fake Festival you agree to the following:

CONDITIONS OF TICKET SALE

  • Tickets cannot be exchanged between different Fake Festivals.
  • Tickets may only be resold through our ticketing resale partner, Tixel (www.tixel.com). Ticket should not be resold or attempted to be resold outside of Tixel and doing so is grounds for ticket cancellation without refund or compensation.
  • Bookings may be cancelled and refunded within 14 days of purchase if the request is made more than 14 days prior to the festival date. Payment will not be refunded in any other circumstances.
  • Valid tickets or ticket codes are only accepted at entry.
  • If we suspect a ticket/ticket code may not belong to you we may ask you to prove your identity or quote details from the original booking.
  • Tickets are exchanged for access wristbands on first entry into the festival. Each member of the audience must be wearing a valid wristband at all times during the event. We cannot be held liable for any tickets/wristbands which are lost or stolen.
  • It is the responsibility of the ticket purchaser to ensure booking details and tickets are correct as mistakes cannot always be rectified.
  • In the event of the festival advertised on the ticket having to be abandoned during the event (for any reason) the festival will deemed to have been held and no refunds will be possible.
  • Fake Festivals accepts no responsibility for any personal property lost, damaged or stolen.
  • Once a booking has been made the ticket quantities cannot be changed. We cannot part cancel/refund bookings and a new ticket purchase would be necessary if more tickets are required.
  • All audience members consent to audio/visual recording of the festival for publicity purposes.
  • If the event is cancelled prior to the event starting Fake Festivals will automatically refund tickets booked from the website (online bookings) back to the payment card used in the original transaction. If a ticket was purchased at a ticket outlet (not from the website) it is the responsibility of the ticket holder to organise their own ticket refund by contacting us through the website, as refunds will not be available at the ticket outlet used to purchase them.
