Full Terms and Conditions

EXCHANGES AND REFUNDS
We do not offer refunds, except in the event of the performance being cancelled.   

If a customer is no longer able, or no longer wishes, to attend a performance we can offer an exchange to another performance or a credit voucher; provided we are contacted at least 48 hours before the performance by the ticket booker. Credit Vouchers are valid for 1 year from the date of issue. From March 2023, the Royal Court will charge a £1 administrative fee per ticket (capped at £5) for the service; this applies if exchanging tickets to credit. If the customer is a Friend or Good Friend, this fee is waived. 

If a customer exchanges tickets to a date where there are no seats remaining in that price band, we will price match to the nearest price band available. We do not do refunds/partial refunds of any kind.

Tickets cannot be resold through unauthorised third parties. If a ticket is transferred or resold in breach of this condition, the bearer of the ticket or the person claiming the right to attend the event will be refused admission to the event and any memberships you may have with the Royal Court will be terminated.  

If an event has sold out, we are happy to try and re-sell your tickets once we have sold all of our own available tickets, including any last minute holds we may have. Please note that we cannot guarantee the re-sale of your tickets. If they are re-sold, you will be issued with credit, which is attached to your Royal Court customer record and can be spent on future tickets at the Royal Court. This credit voucher is valid for 1 year.  

In the event of a performance being cancelled, customers will be offered: the full purchase cost of the ticket to be refunded via the original payment method; a refund to credit that is valid for 1 year from the date of issue; an exchange for another performance at the Royal Court.  

The Royal Court reserves the right to make alterations to the advertised programme, casting or schedule at any time and without advance notice. The Royal Court does not have understudies and so it may be necessary to cancel a performance at short notice due to cast indisposition. For this reason, please ensure the Box Office has your correct contact details.  

Please check your tickets and confirmation email carefully as mistakes cannot be rectified at a later date.
