Proof of age may be required by us. Children unaccompanied by an adult may not be admitted after certain times in accordance with our licensing conditions.

Furthermore, we reserve the right to refuse admission to or to require to leave the premises (without providing a refund) anyone:-

  • where there might be a risk to the safety of others if we do not
  • who appears to be intoxicated and/or is behaving in an antisocial way

We reserve the right to delay or refuse the admittance of latecomers.

The following items may not be taken into the Kirkgate Centre:  Alcohol, Drinks, Bottles, Cans, Illegal Substances, Portable Laser Equipment and Pens, Unauthorised Professional Film or Video Equipment, Audio Recorders. All such items will be confiscated.  Please note that it is an offence to make a recording of a film or musical performance for sale or to distribute or communicate a recording to the public in the course of business and to the prejudice of the copyright owner. Anyone making such a recording may be arrested and prosecuted.

We reserve the right to carry out random bag checks.

No refunds will be issued to anyone who is refused entry or ejected from the Kirkgate on account of being (or appearing to be) under age, declining to be searched, abusive, threatening, drunk or other antisocial behaviour (including smoking in no smoking areas), carrying offensive weapons or illegal substances, or making unauthorised audio, video or photographic recordings.

Tickets

The purchase of a ticket entitles the bearer access to the performance/event named at the stated time and date.

‘Ticket’ shall mean a physical ticket an emailed ticket or a ticket displayed on a mobile device provided that the ticket is purchased from Kirgate authorised fulfilment partners or from Kirkgate.

Ticket prices are subject to change. Kirkgate reserves the right to change the prices of tickets and/or introduce discounts/special offers which cannot be retrospectively applied to tickets already purchased.

All discounts/special offers are offered subject to availability and therefore tickets may not be available at all advertised prices at all times.

Concession/discounted ticket prices must be applied for at the time of purchase and cannot be applied to tickets already purchased. Proof of entitlement to a concession/discount may be requested from you at the time of booking and/or when they attend the event. Failure to produce reasonable proof of entitlement to a concession/discount may invalidate the ticket and result in refusal of admittance or ejection from the Kirkgate.

Concessions/discounts are offered individually and cannot be used in conjunction with one another. If you are eligible for multiple concessionary/discounted rates then you will receive the cheapest singularly discounted price, not a cumulatively reduced price.

You must not resell or offer for resale any tickets (whether at a premium or otherwise) or use tickets for advertising or promotions or for any other trade purposes. If you resell or offer for resale any tickets, then they will be invalid.

It is your responsibility to check your tickets.  Kirkgate is under no obligation to rectify mistakes after purchase of tickets. We are not obliged to replace lost or stolen tickets but may do so at our discretion. Please keep your tickets safe.

It is your responsibility to assess the suitability of an event for children where no official age restriction applies.

A waiting list may be kept for sold out events to assist customers who can no longer attend. Kirkgate may charge an administration fee for facilitating the transfer of tickets.

Changes to Performances

Kirkgate does all it can to ensure that performances take place in accordance with the advertised programme. However, we reserve the right to cancel a performance/ or event, vary its time or vary the headline act or bill (in the case of music or comedy).  If this becomes necessary because of circumstances beyond our control. We will, at our discretion, refund the cost of the ticket or issue another ticket for the same performance/event on an alternative occasion. No other compensatory payments will be made.

If an event is abandoned after commencing you will be offered, subject to availability, equivalent value tickets for an alternative performance of the same production or the ticket will be refunded at face value.
