If the card supplier declines payment, the Company is under no obligation to bring this fact to your attention.  You should check with your bank/credit/debit card supplier that payment has been deducted from your account.

Places will be confirmed on receipt of payment in full. We reserve the right to refuse admission if payment has not been received in advance of the event.

Notification of any substitutions should be made in writing in advance. Cancellations should be advised in writing and will incur an 100% cancellation fee.

Placing orders and making payments
