If an additional transfer is required to get you to your destination, this will be treated as a new and separate booking payable by you.

• 8.1 If, after our booking confirmation has been issued, you wish to cancel your booking, you will need to contact us as soon as possible by email to helpdesk@festicket.com.
• 8.2 Our cancellation charges vary depending on how far in advance of your departure date you cancel, our ability to re-sell your Festival Package to another person and the charges we incur to our suppliers as a result of your cancellation. We will do our best to keep such cancellation charges to a minimum. We may also charge you an administration fee for handling the cancellation.

We may charge you an administration fee for any changes.

9. Changes to your booking or cancellation by us

• 9.1 We will try to keep changes to your booking to a minimum and we will advise you of any changes to your booking at the earliest possible date.

Prior to departure:

• 9.2 If, before you have received your booking confirmation, we make a change to the Festival Package that you have requested, we will notify you and you have the right to accept the amended package, or to reject the amended package and take a full refund. We shall have no further liability to you other than to refund the package, as no contract shall have been in existence.
• 9.3 if, after you have received your booking confirmation (at which point your contract with us has been formed) but before your Festival Package commences, we have to make a significant change such as a change of date or location of the festival, or we have to cancel any part of your booking, we will notify you immediately with the details of the revised package and the revised price and you will have the choice to either: accept the revised package at the revised price; or (if we are able to offer one to you) take a substitute package of equivalent or superior quality for the same price as the original package; or (if we are able to offer one to you) take a substitute package of lower quality than the original package; or cancel the original package and obtain a full refund. You must inform us of your choice as soon as possible.
• 9.4 If we cancel the Festival Package contract, you may be entitled to compensation, where appropriate. Where compensation is due, we will pay you the amounts set out in clause 9.7 below, unless you can prove a greater loss.

If it impossible to make suitable alternative arrangements or these are not accepted by you for good reasons, we will, where appropriate, provide you with equivalent transport back to the place of departure.

10. Our liability to you

• 10.1 In relation to Festival Package bookings, we promise to make sure that the component parts of the Festival Package are performed or provided with reasonable skill and care. This means that, subject to these booking conditions, we will accept responsibility if, for example, you suffer death or personal injury or your Festival Package is not provided as promised or proves deficient as a result of the failure of ourselves, our employees, agents or suppliers to use reasonable skill and care in performing or providing your Festival Package and, in the case of your Festival Package not being provided as promised or proving to be deficient, that this has affected your enjoyment of your Festival Package. It is your responsibility to show that reasonable skill and care has not been used and that your enjoyment of the Festival Package has been affected if you wish to make a claim against us. In addition, we will only be responsible for what our employees, agents and suppliers do or do not do if they were at the time acting within the course of their employment (for employees) or carrying out work we had asked them to do (for agents and suppliers).
• 10.2 In relation to Ticket-Only bookings, we have a duty to select the festival provider with reasonable skill and care, but we have no liability to you for the actual provision of the festival, except in cases where it is proved that we have breached our duty and damage to you has been caused. Therefore, providing we have selected the festival provider with reasonable care and skill, we will have no liability to you for anything that happens at the festival or for any acts or omissions of the festival organiser, promoter or others.
• 10.3 In relation to all bookings, we will not be liable for any injury, illness, death, loss (for example, loss of enjoyment), damage, expense, cost or other sum or claim of any description whatsoever which results from any of the following: the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected or any member(s) of their party; the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party not connected with the provision of your booking and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable; or unusual and unforeseeable events or circumstances beyond our or our suppliers control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if due care had been exercised, including without limitation, exceptional or severe weather conditions, industrial action or fire.
• 10.4 We do not accept responsibility or liability for any services that do not form part of our contract with you. This includes, for example, any additional services or facilities which the hotel, festival organiser, transport operator or any other service that a supplier agrees to provide for you where the services or facilities are not advertised on our website as being included in the price of your festival ticket or Festival Package and we have not agreed to arrange them.
• 10.5 The promises we make to you about the services we have agreed to provide or arrange as part of our contract and the laws and regulations of the country in which your claim or complaint occurred will be used as the basis for deciding whether the services in question were properly provided. If the particular services which gave rise to the claim or complaint complied with local laws and regulations applicable to those services at the time, the services will be treated as having been properly provided. This will be the case even if the services did not comply with the laws and regulations of the U.K. that would have applied had those services been provided in the U.K. The exception to this is where the claim or complaint concerns the absence of a safety feature, which might lead a reasonable customer to refuse to take the trip in question.
• 10.6 Our liability, except in cases involving death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum of three times the cost of your booking. In addition, for all claims (including those involving death or personal injury), the maximum amount of compensation we will have to pay you will be limited in accordance with (as applicable): the contractual terms and conditions of the festival organiser or promoter; the terms and conditions of carriage relating to any transfers; and any international conventions that apply to the supplier and which limit the amount that you can claim for death, injury or delay and loss, damage and delay to luggage (and such conventions shall apply to Festicket.com as if it was the carrier or supplier under the applicable convention).
• 10.7 Copies of the contractual terms that apply to the festival, your hotel and transfers included in your Festival Package, together with copies of the applicable international conventions are available from us on request. They are expressly incorporated into your contract with Festicket.com and they also form the terms and conditions of separate contracts between you and the particular supplier.
• 10.8 We do not accept any liability for any damage, loss, cost, expense or other sum(s) of any description (a) which, on the basis of the information you provided to us prior to our confirming your booking, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you or (b) which did not result from any breach of contract or other fault by ourselves or our employees or, where we are responsible for them, our suppliers. In addition, we do not accept liability for any business losses, including loss of profit, or any losses that do not arise directly from our breach.
• 10.9 You must provide us and our insurers with all the assistance that we may reasonably require in relation to any claim. You must also tell us and the supplier concerned about your claim or complaint (see clause 11 below). If asked to do so, you must transfer to us or our insurers any rights you have against the supplier or whoever else is responsible for your claim or complaint (if the person concerned is under 18, their parent or guardian must do so). You must also agree to co-operate fully with us and our insurers if we or our insurers want to enforce any rights which are transferred.

11. Complaints and claims

• 11.1 If you have a complaint or claim in relation to the festival or any other part of the Festival Package, you must tell the festival organiser, hotel, or transport provider (as appropriate) at the time the issue occurs, as most problems can be solved on the spot. If the matter cannot be resolved locally at the time, then please write an email to our customer services department at helpdesk@festicket.com within 28 days of returning home from your trip. This will help us to quickly identify your concerns and speed up our response to you. If you fail to follow this procedure, we will have been deprived of the opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint whilst you were in resort and this may affect your rights under your contract.

12. Insurance

• 12.1 We consider adequate insurance to be essential and we recommend that you take out insurance to cover your trip. You should ensure that any insurance policy covers, as a minimum, the cost of cancellation by you, and if you are travelling outside the U.K. for your festival, the cost of medical assistance and repatriation.

13. Health & safety

• 13.1 You must comply at all times with all health and safety requirements of festival organiser, hotel or other accommodation provider and transport provider. If you breach any of these requirements or your behaviour or conduct, in the reasonable opinion of the supplier or us, causes or is likely to cause danger, upset or distress to anyone else or damage to property, you may be refused travel or entry into the festival. We shall have no liability to you in these circumstances and no refund shall be given.

14. Passport, visas and health formalities

• 14.1 If the festival is located outside the U.K, you will need a valid passport to travel. In some countries, a visa may also be necessary. Please contact us for any general information about passports and visas that you may need. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the required passport and visa for your destination country. We shall not have any responsibility or liability to you if you are refused travel or entry in the destination country for failure to hold the correct documentation.
• 14.2 Health requirements for travelling abroad change and you should check the up-to-date position in good time before departure by checking the travel advice section of the Department of Health's website or by checking the recommended practice with your GP, practice nurse or travel health clinic. We can provide you with general information about health formalities on request.

15. Special requests and medical problems

• 15.1 If you have any special requests, you must advise us at the time of booking. We will pass on any reasonable requests on to the supplier, but we cannot guarantee any request will be met.
• 15.2 If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability that may require assistance, please tell us before you book, or if diagnosed after you confirm your booking, as soon as possible after you become aware. If the supplier in question reasonably feels unable to properly accommodate the particular needs of the person concerned, we must reserve the right to decline your booking or, if full details are not given at the time of booking, cancel when we become aware of these details.

16. Data protection

• 16.1 In order to process your booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements run smoothly and meet your requirements, we need to use the personal information you provide such as name, address, and any special needs/dietary requirements etc. We shall ensure that proper security measures are in place to protect your information and we will comply with the Data Protection Act 1998.
• 16.2 In order to process your booking we must pass your personal information on to the relevant suppliers of your Festival Package such as the festival organiser or promoter, hotel, and transport provider. We may also need to provide your personal information to security or credit checking companies, credit and debit card companies, regulatory or public authorities such as customs or immigration if required by them, or as required by law. We may have to send your personal information to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) where controls on data protection may not be as strong as the legal requirements in this country. By making a booking, you consent to this use of your personal information.

17. Financial protection

• 17.1 Payments that you make to us for Festival Packages are protected by our insurance policy arranged with IPP and their panel of insurers in the event of our insolvency. This means that if, in the unlikely event of our insolvency, your Festival Package booking can't be provided, you will receive a refund of any money that you have paid to us in advance of your booking, or if your package has started, arrangements will be made for you to be repatriated. Ticket-only bookings do not have this financial protection and so you may wish to take out your own insurance to cover the event of our insolvency.

18. Governing law and jurisdiction

• 18.1 This contract and any dispute, claim or other matter of any description that arises out of or in connection with this contract is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with English law. The courts of England and Wales shall have jurisdiction to decide any dispute or claim that arises out of or in connection with this contract. If you are a resident of Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may choose the law and jurisdiction of in Scotland or Northern Ireland instead.
