The best way to book any special seating requirements is to call us on 0844 811 0051.

Many venues handle disabled bookings directly, as they need to talk to the customers to determine specific needs and therefore the best seating/allocation. If this is the case, we'll usually be able to provide you with the venue's direct phone number. For some venues, we can book accessible seats, but again, we prefer to speak to customers to ensure they are given the best options regarding their requirements.

For these reasons, most events are not set up to book disabled tickets online, for which we apologise. So please, give us a call and we'll do what we can to help.

Payments made to us will appear on your card statements as "TICKETS 08712200260"

Once you have completed the booking form and submitted your order, you will get an email confirmation from us - please ensure that you enter your email address correctly when booking.

Your email confirmation will show details of your order including: show, date, venue, number of tickets and booking reference.

Many email account providers offer a filter service to protect you from unwanted junk mail or 'spam'. It is possible that your email confirmation from us has been mistakenly filtered by this service; so if you do not receive email confirmation from us within 48 hours, please check your Junk Mail and/or Deleted Files folders first. If you still cannot find your confirmation email, you can request for it to be resent - by logging into our Customer Services area here.

It is not always possible to post tickets overseas. You will need to collect them at the venue, if:

- the tickets would normally be dispatched by secure mail (£4.80 or higher transaction fee), or
- the event is less than 20 days away.

In the event that your tickets are set for collection, we will email you to advise you of this. If you are unsure, please Contact Customer Services Online by logging into our Customer Services area here to confirm whether or not we will be posting your order. If you do have to collect your order, you will need to bring the card you used to pay for the tickets, photo I.D and your order reference number.

You can also request your order for collection instead of posting, just use the contact link above to ask us.

The price of a ticket is set by the event organisers. They don't pay us anything to sell their tickets, so in order to function Gigsandtours has to charge on top of the face value of the ticket. We do this on a per-ticket basis to allow us to provide a 24/7 booking service and order processing, this also covers our staff, customer services, credit card commissions and all the other costs associated with running our business. The actual amount we charge is negotiated with the venue or promoter for each individual event, and it is non-refundable in the event of a cancellation.

The transaction fee covers the costs of processing orders, printing, packing and delivering the tickets to you. This fee also applies to tickets arranged for collection at the venue. The transaction fee applies per order not per ticket. If you purchase six tickets, you only pay one transaction fee. The transaction fee will vary depending on what type of postage we are being asked to use by the event organiser and these costs are reflective of the amount that Gigsandtours.com are charged by dispatch companies. First class post and courier delivery prices will vary accordingly. Gigsandtours.com only send tickets securely for events that do not issue duplicate tickets in the event that tickets get lost in the post. This fee may also be applied to both print at home and e-tickets to cover the cost of deploying technology and/or staff to the venue site.

Yes it is. For security when booking, your details are transmitted using industry standard 128 bit SSL (secure socket layer) encryption. You'll need to be using a browser compatible with SSL (most modern ones are).

Unfortunately for some events, demand for tickets far outweighs the number we can supply. Tickets are sold to customers on a first-come first-served basis, and we do not operate a waiting list for cancellations.

Unfortunately not. Tickets purchased from Gigsandtours are strictly non-transferable and non-refundable. The only time we would offer a refund is if the event is cancelled, moved to another date, or if details of the event are significantly changed after an order is placed (significant changes being a change of headline act (concerts only) or venue).

Some shows have a limit on the number of tickets one customer/household/card-holder can purchase. These limits are set by promoters and organisers, not by Gigsandtours. If you attempt to purchase over the show limit using the same name, address or card number, Gigsandtours.com reserve the right to cancel your order at any time without notice. If you are only being allowed to purchase one ticket for a seated event, this indicates there may only be single seats available in the auditorium. If you do not wish to sit on your own, please do not book, as we will be unable to exchange your seat or offer you a refund.

If you prefer, you can usually ask us to send your tickets straight to the venue box office for you to collect. Sometimes, if the show is coming up very soon or for other reasons, Gigsandtours may ask you to collect your order if we can't get it to you by post. In this case, you will need to present the credit or debit card you used to pay for the order, and the reference number at the venue box office.

With the exception of Print at Home orders, the type of postal service can not be changed or upgraded. Due to the volume of orders we print and dispatch in any one day, it is not possible to locate an individual booking in the system and make this change.
