Terms & Conditions
These terms and conditions are to be read in conjunction with the Festival Guide, and Oztix terms and conditions.
1. Event Tickets:
You are responsible for checking the age minimum for the Event. No refunds will be processed if you are denied entry due to not having valid ID for admittance to the Event Site. This is a licenced 18+ event.
Entry to the Event requires one of the following combined with a valid photo ID:
- a valid bar-coded ticket;
- a valid bar-coded print-at-home PDF ticket; or
- a valid bar-coded Passbook ticket (electronic ticket on mobile device), issued by the Authorised Ticketing Agency.
The Event gate staff may exchange your ticket for your wristband upon entry depending on the event. If your ticket is damaged, please bring the ticket, ID, and your evidence of purchase to the Box Office Management Team at the entrance. The authorised ticketing agency is Oztix Pty Ltd.
2. Wristbands:
If wristbands are distributed, you must wear your wristband at all times during the Event. Removing or losing your wristband will result in your eviction from the Event without refund. If your wristband shows evidence of being tampered with you will be removed from the event without refund. If you are found carrying a lose wristband (not on your wrist), this will be confiscated, and you will be removed from the event.
3. Lost Event Tickets and Wristbands including Bus Tickets and Wristbands:
Your ticket is your responsibility. Please treat it like cash. We cannot guarantee that a replacement ticket can be issued if your ticket is lost, stolen or damaged. If your ticket is lost, damaged, or stolen, you must report this to the ticketing agent immediately so that they can cancel this ticket and issue you a new one prior to the day of the event (at the discretion of the ticketing agency).
Replacement is not available for lost, destroyed or stolen Event or Bus tickets unless you have proof of purchase and your valid ID. We cannot replace tickets on the day of the event unless we can verify that your original ticket has not already been used by another party to gain entry to the event.
Your wristband is your responsibility. If you lose your wristband at the event, you will be removed from the event – even if you have evidence of your purchased ticket. This is because we cannot verify if you have given your wristband to a non-ticket holder who has unlawfully gained access to the event. Please ensure that your wristband is applied securely by gate staff. If your wristband is too tight, do not attempt to loosen it yourself. Go to the information tent immediately and they will replace your wristband with one of the correct tension. If your wristband is too loose, you can simply pull it tighter until you are satisfied that it will not fall off.
4. Ticket Restrictions including Event and Bus tickets:
Re-sale of Event tickets is only permitted through TIXEL. Oztix do not have a ticket resale facility. They collaborate with Tixel to safely organise the resale of your tickets.

You can change the ticket into their name by using the Tixel service.
Event tickets may not, without the prior written consent of Promoter:
- be re-sold or offered for resale at a premium (including via online auction sites);
- be used for advertising, promotion or other commercial purposes (including competitions and trade promotions); or
- be used to enhance the demand for other goods or services, either by the original purchaser or any subsequent bearer.
