How to Get a Refund for a Ticket

Help Center Bookings Created: 2 weeks ago

Refund eligibility depends on whether the event was canceled, postponed, or still going ahead, and on the organizer's stated refund policy. This article explains when refunds apply and how to request one.

If the event was canceled by the organizer

If an organizer cancels their event before it takes place, all ticket buyers are entitled to a full refund of the ticket price paid. The organizer is responsible for initiating refunds within 14 days of cancellation. If they do not, we may intervene on buyers' behalf.

Our service fees are generally non-refundable on canceled events unless required by applicable law.

If the event was postponed or rescheduled

For a rescheduled event, the organizer decides the refund approach, they may offer full refunds, transfers to the new date, or both. The organizer must communicate their policy to ticket holders within 48 hours of the change. Contact the organizer directly if you have not received this information.

If you no longer want to attend

Whether you can get a refund depends on the event organizer's refund policy. Some organizers set a refund window, a period before the event within which refunds are available. If no window was set, the default is no refunds after purchase.

Check your booking confirmation email or the event page for the organizer's refund terms. If you are within the stated refund window, contact the organizer. SeeHow to contact the organizer about your booking.

Free tickets

Free tickets have no monetary value and no financial refund applies. If you no longer want to attend, you can cancel your free ticket from your ShowRave account.
