In the event that the Ticket Holders wristband is removed, lost, altered or defaced, the ticket will be considered invalidated and will not be replaced.

Access to a stage on the Festival is subject to the stage’s licensed capacity. Ticket Holders are therefore recommended to get to a stage early if there’s a particular band they would like to see as entry cannot be guaranteed once the stage has reached capacity. Tickets are purchased to the Festival as a whole and the Promoter will accept no liability or offer any refund if the Ticket Holder is unable to attend a specific stage or performance due to an individual stage reaching it’s capacity.

Festivals reserves the right to refuse admission or to serve alcohol if the Ticket Holder fails to produce Photographic ID as proof of age on request, without refund. Valid forms of ID are a current passport or current Driver’s License.

Ticket Holders may be searched at entry points to the Festival. The Festival has the right to confiscate any item they believe to be a risk to the health and safety of others within the Festival. Festival reserves the right to refuse admission without refund if Ticket Holders refuse to be searched in accordance with Festival security policies or if Ticket Holders refuse to have non-permitted items confiscated.
