We advise you to read all contract terms carefully as they contain important information about your booking.Sales on our site may comprise ticket-only sales, other single element sales, event packages or linked merchandise arrangements. Ticket-only, hotel-only and other single element sales: If you buy a Event or weekender ticket(s) on our website as a single element without any additional services, or you buy a ticket with accommodation, we act solely as an agent in making arrangements on your behalf and your contract is with the event organiser, hotelier or other supplier, as applicable. Also note that if you return to our website at a later date and purchase an additional service, this is also a single element sale that we sell to you as agent and your contract is with the supplier.

1. How to book

1.1 All tickets are subject to availability. Event organisers supply us with a limited number of tickets for sale within a limited sales period and so we only have a limited number of tickets available at the prices indicated. 1.2 To make a booking for your event ticket, simply follow the instructions on our website to select the number of attendees and event ticket category for the Event. Accommodation, merchandise and other options will also be shown, as applicable: simply select accommodation, merchandise and or other options that you choose from the list of services that you want.

You must select the “Book Now” button to proceed to the payment and check-out page. All tickets and other services are payable in full on booking. Subscription services will be indicated in text format of payment schedules, deposits required and the account the payments will continue from until product is paid in full. 1.3 A contract is only formed once we have issued you with an email booking confirmation setting out the full details of your tickets and any other services booked. We will only issue your booking confirmation once full payment has been received. Please check your booking confirmation carefully and contact us immediately at support [at] bloco.co.uk if anything on the booking confirmation appears to be incorrect or incomplete. 1.4 Your contract will be with the individual service provider and the terms and conditions of that individual service provider will apply to the service being provided. Accordingly, where you purchase more than one service, there will be more than one contract. We advise you to read carefully the terms of the provider(s) of your booking as they contain important information. Please ask us or copies if you do not have them. 1.5 The person who makes the booking will be deemed to be the lead name for the booking and will be listed as the contracting party on the booking confirmation.

4. Event tickets

4.1 Entry into the Event is only permitted on production of a valid ticket or pass. We will supply tickets to you in advance of the Event date. We may deliver tickets by a different means from the one specified in order to ensure that you receive your ticket in advance e.g. email instead of post. Accordingly, if we issue you with an e-ticket, you must bring that e-ticket and present it at the check-in point in order to gain entry into the event. You must use the e-ticket issued in your name and no other e-ticket. You must not allow others to use your e-ticket. If someone else has used your e-ticket you will not be allowed entry. The Event organiser may refuse you entry if you fail to produce all of the aforementioned documents. Bloco shall have no liability for any refusal of admission on the basis of failure to produce valid documentation 4.2 Customers must comply with last entry times, codes of conduct and all other requirements of the Event organiser and the Event organiser has the absolute right to determine entry. Bloco shall not be liable for any non-admission by the organiser. 4.3 Artists and attractions included in the Event programme may be subject to change.

If you wish to cancel the Event ticket or any other service that you have booked after your email booking confirmation has been issued, you must notify us in writing and cancellation shall not take effect until the notice is received by us. Where tickets are non-refundable, this will mean the supplier or event organiser will retain your full booking payment, including the booking fee, as a cancellation charge. If you do not arrive at your booked venue by the time/date printed on your booking confirmation, this is usually deemed to be a cancellation by you and no refund will be payable to you. 5.2 In some cases, the Event organiser may allow you to process a name change for a Event ticket. To arrange this, you will need to log into your account, or your app to make the changes on your order confirmation page. 5.3 If you have purchased Booking Protect, check the terms and conditions of Booking Protect to see if you are able to claim a refund. See Clause 9, Refund protection. Booking fees are not refundable in the event of cancellation of the Event or other services that you have purchased.

6.1 If you have a problem while you are at the Event, accommodation or during another part of your trip, you must report this to the Event organiser, accommodation or other relevant supplier without undue delay who will endeavour to put things right. If it is not resolved locally, please follow this up after your return home, ideally within 14 days, by contacting us at support@bloco.co.uk Bloco.co.uk giving your booking reference and all other relevant information and we will attempt to remedy your complaint with the supplier on your behalf. If you fail to follow this procedure, there will be less opportunity to investigate and rectify your complaint and this may affect your rights under your contract.
