Terms & Conditions

I. Definitions and interpretation

“Event” means an entertainment event including, without limitation, a concert, exhibition, sports, theatrical and/or music event in respect of which We have the right to sell You Tickets.

“Tickets” means tickets or other types of evidence (including electronic tickets) for an Event sold by Us to You on behalf of the organisation responsible for the Event for the right to occupy space at or to attend an Event.

“Venue” means any facilities or locations of any nature where the Event is being held.

“We” means Silent Disco Walking Tours. “Us” and “Our” shall be read accordingly.

“You” means you or anybody who in Our reasonable opinion is acting with your authority or permission. “Your” shall be read accordingly.

“Promoter” means the person firm or company staging the Event if different from Us and the Venue.

“Group” means group organisers, charities, travel and coach companies or other organisations that We have agreed to sell to knowing that the Tickets are intended for resale.

2. Incorporation

These Terms and Conditions incorporate and should be read in accordance with the Promoter terms, conditions and regulations, copies of which are available
upon request if applicable. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms in relation to Venue or Event requirements, those of the Promoter shall prevail. If no Promoter, those of the Venue shall prevail.

3. Tickets

All Tickets are sold subject to availability and to these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions should be read carefully prior to purchase and any queries relating to them should be raised with us prior to purchase as purchase of Tickets constitutes acceptance of these Terms and Conditions

We confirm that We are authorised to sell Tickets.

A valid Ticket must be produced to get into an Event. Removing any part of, altering or defacing the Ticket may invalidate Your Ticket.

It is Your responsibility to check Your Tickets as if you have made a mistake they cannot always be rectified after purchase. Please check your Tickets on receipt carefully and contact us immediately if there is a mistake.

We will not be responsible for any Ticket that is lost, stolen or destroyed. Duplicates may therefore be issued at the discretion of Silent Disco Walking Tours.

We reserve the right to provide alternative seats at an Event to those specified on the Ticket should the staging of the Event so reasonably require, provided they are of no less value to that stated on the Ticket.

Where a concession is claimed, proof of identity and concession entitlement (for example of age or student status) may be required.

Ownership or possession of a Ticket does not confer any rights (by implication or otherwise) on You to use, alter, copy or otherwise deal with any of the symbols, trade marks, logos and/or intellectual property appearing on the Ticket.

4. Price and payment

The price of the Ticket shall be the price set at the time We accept Your order. No order shall be accepted until we have received full payment.

5. Delivery

Tickets are issued electronically only and will be emailed to the address provided immediately upon receipt of payment. Please contact us if you require these to be re-sent.

In the case of Gift Vouchers for our events, these will be issued within 48 hours of purchase.

6. Changes to Event

Where reasonably necessary, Silent Disco Walking Tours reserves the right to make alterations to the published Event programme.

7. Refunds/exchanges

Except where We offer an applicable Ticket exchange or resale facility, Tickets cannot be exchanged or refunded after purchase unless the event is cancelled or rescheduled (subject to below) or where there is a material change to the programme. You will be entitled to claim a refund from Us in accordance with this clause.

A ‘material’ change is a change which, in Our reasonable opinion, makes the Event materially different to the Event that purchasers of the Ticket, taken generally, could reasonably expect. The use of a different host to one listed would not constitute a material change.

Where an event is cancelled or curtailed because of adverse weather, We shall not be liable to make any refund or pay any compensation beyond offering a credit to book for alternative dates in the future.

Where such a refund is sought You must bring this to Our attention as soon as possible upon becoming aware of such change and, where the Event has been rescheduled, prior to the rescheduled Event. The refund for Tickets equals the face value of the Tickets purchased plus the relevant per Ticket booking fee. In order to claim Your refund, please apply in writing to Your point of purchase, and any electronic ticket or reference codes associated. Refunds shall only be made to the person who purchased the Tickets and, when possible, be made using the same method as was used to purchase the Tickets except, at Our discretion, where payment was made by cash.

These Terms and Conditions do not and shall not affect your statutory rights as a consumer. For further information about your statutory rights contact Citizens Advice, Consumer Direct (http://www.consumerdirect.gov.uk/) or the Department for Business Enterprise & Regulatory Reform

8. Liability

Personal arrangements including travel, accommodation or hospitality relating to the Event which has been arranged by You are at your own risk. Liability for the cancellation or rescheduling of an Event, or for material changes to an Event, will be limited to the refund as set forth in Section 7.

Silent Disco Walking Tours will not be responsible for any loss, theft or damage of Your personal belongings, other than caused as a result of Our negligence.

9. Cancelled/re-scheduled Events

It is Your responsibility to ascertain whether an Event has been cancelled or re-scheduled and the date and time of any re-scheduled Event. Where an Event is cancelled or re-scheduled, We will use Our reasonable endeavours to notify You using the details You provided Us with at the time of ordering. We do not guarantee that You will be informed of such cancellation before the date of the Event.

It is Your responsibility to inform Us of any change to the contact address, telephone number or email address You provide Us with at the time of ordering

10. Resale/use of Tickets and property

You may not re-sell or transfer a Ticket if prohibited by law. In addition, re-sales or transfers of Tickets may be prohibited for certain events subject to the specific terms and conditions of those events (for example but not exclusively limited to charity events or events where age restrictions may apply because of the content of the entertainment or licensing requirements. You may not re-sell or transfer a Ticket if you are selling or transferring the Ticket in the course of business. You are deemed to be selling or transferring in the course of business where we reasonably believe you to be doing so.

Circumstances where We may consider that a Ticket is being resold in the course of business include:

1) Where a Ticket is sold or advertised for sale for profit (as defined below) through any medium not authorised by Us, including through unauthorised online auction or other websites. Such a sale will be assessed in the light of the factors set out at 2 & 3 below.

2) Where a single Ticket reseller frequently advertises or offers tickets for resale for the same event or multiple events.

3) Where we reasonably consider that a Ticket offered for resale has originally been purchased with the specific intention of offering it for resale for profit and with no intention for the original purchaser or a friend or associate of the purchaser to make use of the Ticket by attending the event.

4) Where we offer an authorised exchange, return or resales facility, a Ticket offered for resale for profit more than fourteen days before the event takes place and through sales channels that have not been authorised by Us will automatically be considered to be a business transaction. Such a sale will be assessed in light of factors set out at 2 & 3 above. If a ticket is offered for resale for profit less than fourteen days before the event takes place then We may determine whether We consider this to be a business transaction by taking other factors into consideration including:

a. The number of tickets being offered for sale by the ticket reseller.

b. Any evidence that You or someone for whom You have bought the ticket can provide regarding the fact that he/she cannot attend the event for genuine reasons.

c. Whether a third party business (such as an online auction site or other such ticket resale facilitator) not authorised by Us will benefit financially by way of commission or other fee from facilitating the resale of the ticket, particularly if that financial benefit varies according to the price paid for the resold ticket.

Re-selling a Ticket for profit means any re-sale that seeks a price that is higher than the face value of the ticket and the relevant booking fee and/or handling fee (if any) that You paid for the Ticket.

Where a Ticket is offered for resale in line with these terms and conditions, you must provide to the buyer full details of the ticket. Buyers must also be made aware of these
terms and conditions and any other terms and conditions that are specific to the event. You should check whether any special terms apply before offering a free Ticket for resale. Free tickets are often provided for specific reasons limiting their transferability.

12. Void Tickets

Any Ticket obtained in breach of these Terms and Conditions shall be void and all, rights conferred or evidenced by such Ticket shall be void. Any person seeking to use such a void Ticket in order to gain or provide entry to an Event may be considered to be a trespasser and may be liable to be ejected and liable to legal action.

Void Tickets are non-refundable.

13. Restrictions on the purchase of tickets

Tickets may be restricted to a maximum number. Any such restriction shall be notified to You at the time You book the- Tickets. We reserve the right to cancel Tickets purchased in excess of this number and without the Agent’s agreement, without prior notice unless the purchase of an excess was due to Our error.

14. Conditions of Admission

Silent Disco Walking Tours reserves the right to refuse Ticket holders admission to the venue or tour in reasonable circumstances including for health and safety, licensing reasons or where a Ticket is void.

Silent Disco Walking Tours also reserves the right to request that Ticket holders leave an event at any point on reasonable grounds and may take any appropriate action to enforce this right. By way of example, the tour host may remove a Ticket holder who:

1) has behaved in a manner which, in the reasonable opinion of the host has, or is likely to affect the enjoyment of other attendees; or

2) uses threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour or in any way provokes or behaves in a manner which may provoke a breach of the peace; or

3) in the reasonable opinion of the host is acting under the influence of alcohol or drugs; or

4) fails, when required, to produce proof of identity or age.

You must comply with instructions and directions given by the tour host and stewards.

No refunds will be given to Ticket holders who are refused entry or ejected due to their own behaviour as suggested in, but not limited to, the examples above.

15. Restrictions and prohibitions

The use of equipment for recording or transmitting (by digital or other means) any audio, visual or audio-visual material or any information or data inside any Venue is strictly forbidden. Unauthorised recordings, tapes, films or similar items may be confiscated and destroyed. Any recording made of an Event in breach of these conditions shall belong to Silent Disco Walking Tours. Silent Disco Walking Tours will not be liable for any loss, theft or damage to confiscated items.

By attending an Event, Ticket holders consent to filming and sound recording of themselves as members of the event. Silent Disco Walking Tours may use such films and recordings (including any copies) without payment.

Ticket holders shall not bring with them, or distribute (whether for free or not) at the Event any sponsorship, promotional or marketing material’s.

16. Health and Safety

Ticket holders must comply with all relevant statutes, safety announcements and regulations whilst attending the Event.

If Ticket holders have any special requirements or concerns about any special effects which may be featured at the Event, prior notice should be provided when ordering Tickets. Special effects may include, without limitation, sound, audio visual, pyrotechnic effects or lighting effects.

17. Dispute Resolution

If any dispute arises out of these Terms and Conditions, We will attempt to settle it. To this end We shall use Our reasonable endeavours to consult or negotiate in good faith, and attempt to reach a just and equitable settlement satisfactory to both parties.

Although this does not restrict your rights to pursue court proceedings, if we are unable to settle any dispute by negotiation within 21 days, the parties may attempt to settle it by mediation. To, initiate a mediation a party must give written notice to the other parties to the dispute requesting a mediation.
