Tickets - Refund / Exchange policy

1. Cancelled or re-scheduled performances
In the rare circumstance that an event is re-scheduled or cancelled by the HHT, the HHT will endeavour to advise customers at the earliest opportunity of this change. If an event is re-scheduled the HHT will ensure that Ticket Holder’s are entitled to entry in the re-scheduled event. If the Ticket Holder is unable to attend the new date or time of the re-scheduled event, or if the event is cancelled, the HHT will ensure that the Ticket Holder receives a full refund of the Ticket price. If the Ticket Holder cannot attend the re-scheduled event they need to notify the box office within seven days of being advised of the change.

2. Ticket Holder unable to attend
It is the Ticket Holders responsibility to attend and arrive on time for an event they’ve booked tickets for. The HHT is not required to provide an exchange option or refund where the Ticket Holder is unable or chooses not to attend the performance, arrives late and cannot be admitted, or where the Ticket Holder has been refused entry or evicted from the venue.

3. Expectations not met
If a Ticket Holder requests a refund only on the grounds that a performance has not met his or her expectations, the HHT is not required to refund the ticket price. The HHT acknowledges that in the event of any false, misleading or deceptive representation the Ticket Holder has rights under any relevant Trade Practices or Fair Trading Laws.

4. Refund & exchange processing
Ticket Holders who feel they have a valid reason to receive a refund or ticket exchange need to clearly request this in writing to the HHT (except in the instance of a cancelled event where the refund will be initiated by the HHT). If approved, the refund will be organised in the manner of payment, eg to the same credit card used or to the same cheque account originally used to purchase the tickets. If the payment was made by cash, money order or bank cheque the amount will be refunded by way of cheque made out to the Ticket Holders name. Once completed confirmation of the refund will be forwarded to the booker where possible.

(a) the Ticket Holder’s request for a refund needs to be received in writing (via email or post) clearly stating the:
  • Ticket Holders name and contact details;
  • the name and date of the event;
  • the ticket type and quantity;
  • the booking and payment details; and
  • the reason for the request
Requests for a refund related to a Members event needs to be forwarded to the attention of the Members Department and requests for a refund related to other HHT events needs to be forwarded to the attention of the Box Office Administrator.
