Article 2 General

2. The present terms and conditions shall also apply to agreements with user, the execution of which calls for the services of third parties.
3. Possible deviations from the present general terms and conditions shall only be valid provided they have been explicitly agreed upon in writing.
Article 3 Offers and Tenders
1. All offers and tenders shall be free of obligation and shall be made through this website or through e-mail, unless user forgoes a written offer for practical, urgent or other reasons. The offer shall bear a date, or shall provide the possibility to be determined according to the date.
2. User shall only be bound by offers and tenders if the consumer accepts such, by ordering and paying direct through the on-line secure payment server. The prices given in an offer shall include VAT, unless indicated otherwise.
3. It shall not be possible to bind user to his offers and tenders if the consumer should have understood in accordance with the requirements of reasonableness and fairness and according to the usual criteria in social and economic life that the offer or tender, or part thereof, obviously contains a mistake or an error in writing.
4. If the acceptance deviates (on secondary items) from the offer given, user shall not be bound by it. The agreement shall in such event not be concluded in accordance with said deviating acceptance, unless user indicates otherwise.
5. A compound quotation shall not oblige user to deliver part of the goods contained in the offer or tender against a corresponding part of the given quotation.
6. Offers and tenders shall not apply automatically to repeat orders.
7. In case the offer or tender is accepted through an on-request order, prices may vary depending on availability. Client will be contacted and put forward another offer or tender or suggestion. If client does not agree at that time, the order can be cancelled.
Article 4 Conclusion of the Agreement
1. The present agreement shall be concluded through the timely acceptance by the consumer of user's offer.
2. Cancellation of any consumer purchase after the client has confirmed the order is not possible. The consumer’s right to withdraw from the contract within 7 days according to the Distance Selling law is not applicable because of the nature of the product. Article 7.1.9A.4 (BW) excludes ‘leisure services on a specific date’.
Article 5 Delivery
1. Unless agreed upon otherwise, delivery shall be made at the specified address given in the order form through WES Express delivery.
2. The consumer shall be held to take delivery of the purchased goods the moment said goods are at his disposal or handed over to him.

In said event, the consumer shall owe all additional costs.
4. Delivery will be charged directly upon the charge of the order. The postage and administration charge depend on the delivery address.
5. If, in the framework of the execution of the agreement, user requires data to be given by the consumer, the term of delivery shall commence after the consumer has provided user with said data.
6. Tickets are sent out approximately 7-10 days before the event as tickets are not received any earlier from the promoter. If user has given a term of delivery, it shall only be indicative. A given term of delivery shall therefore never constitute a term to be observed on penalty of forfeiture of rights. The final term of delivery shall, however, never exceed the given term of delivery by more than one week, unless there is a matter of force majeure. If the term of delivery is exceeded, the consumer must give user notice of default in writing.

2. The risk of loss of, or damage to the ticket(s) can be insured through a third party between the period of sending the ticket(s). The user will offer this option to client.
