- Gindulgence ticket sales may be subject to the terms and conditions of third party payment platforms, and you are solely responsible for paying any and all booking fees and charges in connection with the sale, including but not limited to transaction and processing fees (which for the avoidance of doubt are additional to the advertised ticket price).
- These terms of sale set out the terms and conditions that apply to all purchases of Gindulgence tickets.
- If you purchase, acquire or use a Gindulgence ticket, you are deemed to have accepted these terms of sale and our privacy policy (available at www.gindulgence.co.nz) and agree to be bound by them.
- We reserve the right to vary these terms of sale at any time. Any variation will be effective immediately upon posting of the amended terms of sale on our website.
- At the date of purchase of a Gindulgence ticket these terms of sale replace all prior representations or information provided prior to that date.
- Your Gindulgence Ticket
- You must provide an accurate and valid email address for electronic delivery of your Gindulgence ticket(s).
- You must print and present, or display using a capable mobile device, your Gindulgence ticket(s) at the time of entry.
- You must not modify, amend or change a Gindulgence ticket.
- A confirmation email which contains your Gindulgence ticket(s) will be sent to the email address you provided during the Gindulgence ticket purchasing process, from which you can print your ticket(s). If you do not receive this email then it is your responsibility to contact us through the support portal of the third party ticketing platform used to purchase your tickets (such as TicketFairy or Eventbrite). If you do not inform us through the third party ticketing platform that you have not received confirmation, we will be unable to guarantee that your purchase was successful. This may result in you being unable to purchase Gindulgence tickets if the event is sold out.
- Look after your Gindulgence ticket(s) as you would cash. It must be presented in order to gain admittance to the event. The code on the Gindulgence ticket uniquely identifies this ticket and the purchaser, and can be redeemed only once.
- Currency and Pricing
- All Gindulgence ticket prices are stated in New Zealand Dollars (NZ$) unless otherwise stated. All prices include GST unless otherwise stated.
- Credit card problems
- IHFCL’s ticketing system involves an immediate exchange of information between us and your bank via our selected third party payment platform. Occasionally, your bank may not authorise a transaction, based on your account status or your card not being enabled for online purchases. In these instances please contact your bank for a resolution.
- Ticket Limits
- Gindulgence tickets may be subject to a limited number of tickets that each customer can purchase for a Gindulgence event. This limit (if any) will be published as part of the event information. This policy is meant to restrict unfair purchasing practices.

- Gindulgence tickets cannot be refunded, exchanged or cancelled once issued except in accordance with these terms and conditions or the applicable laws of New Zealand. Therefore, please ensure that you carefully review your purchase before processing the purchase.
- Occasionally, events may be cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control. Should this occur we reserve the sole discretion to determine whether to offer full or partial refund (if any) to you.
- Cancellations and/or Refunds due to adverse weather conditions are at the sole and unfettered discretion of IHFCL as events can, for example, depending on the venue, be moved inside. For avoidance of doubt, IHFCL does not offer an automatic right to a refund due to adverse weather conditions.
- In the event a refund is authorised by us, IHFCL retains the right to refund directly to the credit card used for the original purchase.
- IHFCL reserves the right to postpone a Gindulgence event to a later date. In the event of a postponement, purchased tickets for the original date will be valid for the new date unless otherwise notified.
