2. HOW THESE TERMS WORK

2.1 Your admission to and conduct at the Venue is governed by these Venue Terms. By purchasing Tickets and/or entering or attempting to enter the Venue, you will be taken to have accepted these Venue Terms and, where a Ticket has been purchased, the Ticket Terms.

3. AMENDMENTS TO THESE TERMS

3.1 These Venue Terms may be amended from time to time, to reflect changes in the rules of admission, changes in health and safety and/or security procedures, changes to the arrangements in place between MKIHC and relevant Ticket Agents and/or Organisers, and/or changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.

3.2 Each visit to the Venue will be subject to the Venue Terms in force at the time of the visit. It is your responsibility to check the Venue Terms before entering the Venue so that you are aware of any changes.

3.3 MKIHC reserves the right to change its Ticket Terms from time to time, as these may vary on an Event by Event basis. It is your responsibility to check the Ticket Terms for each Event.

4. YOUR TICKET

 

4.1 Your Ticket may be in the form of paper, mobile/bar code, email, wristband or chip technology or such other form that becomes available over time including paperless mechanisms. Tickets cannot be cancelled or exchanged after purchase, other than in accordance with these Venue Terms and the terms of the Ticket Agent from which they are purchased.

4.2 Only persons holding a valid Ticket (and in some cases valid ID, pursuant to section 7.1 of these Venue Terms) will be admitted to Events. You must keep your Ticket with you at all times during an Event.

4.3 Keep your Tickets safe. Your Ticket may be invalidated if any part of it is removed, altered or defaced. Removing the Ticket stub of a physical Ticket will invalidate the Ticket. Tickets cannot be duplicated if lost or stolen and neither MKIHC nor any Organiser will be liable for any lost or stolen Tickets.

4.4 Ownership or possession of a Ticket does not confer any rights (by implication or otherwise) on you to use, alter, copy or otherwise deal with any of the symbols, trademarks, logos and/or intellectual property appearing on the Ticket or used in connection with the Event.

4.5 For Events with seated and standing arrangements, each Ticket provides you with the right to use a seat (as applicable) of a value and location corresponding to that stated on your Ticket. A standing Ticket allows access to the rink, but does not confer a specific standing location (except where purchased as a Season Ticket).  Where it is not possible to allow you to occupy the specific seat printed on your Ticket we reserve the right to provide alternative seats. In these circumstances, we will use reasonable endeavours to provide you with a seat of equal value to that which you purchased. Where we are unable to do so we will reimburse to you the difference in value of the seat we are able to provide and the value of the seat printed on your Ticket. We shall have no further liability to you as a result of the change in seats.

4.6 Standing Tickets issued by Planet Ice do not entitle you to an allocated numbered standing space. Please make your way to a space on a first come first served basis. Standing tickets issued by Planet Ice may contain a number, but this DOES NOT correspond to a standing black sticker number around the rink edge.  Reserved standing Season Ticket spaces are labelled.  Season Ticket holders for an allocated Standing position will always have priority over Planet Ice issued standing tickets.  If you are occupying an allocated Season Ticket holder standing position (as indicated by a Silver Sticker and/or the Season Ticket holder’s ticket) you may be asked to relocate to another available standing location.
