Refund Policy

Oxford Lindy Hoppers (OLH) will comply with all current HM Government legislation during our events. As a condition of attendance, entry holders will be required to comply with this legislation and any associated statutory guidelines, and accordingly, where necessary Oxford Lindy Hoppers reserve the right to vary and amend these terms and conditions (solely to the extent necessary to accommodate such changes to legislation and guidance). In particular this will apply to any public health rules, policies, advice and guidance which can be subject to change at short notice.

This policy does not affect your statutory rights.

2. Ticket transfers

You are welcome to transfer your ticket to someone else up to 10 days before the event but only with the prior permission of Oxford Lindy Hoppers.

  • Transfer requests must be sent by e-mail to oxfordlindyhoppers@gmail.com with full details of both the buyer and seller including their full email addresses with both parties cc’d to the email. To minimise potential fraud, Oxford Lindy Hoppers will confirm with the buyer and the seller before completing the transfer and reserve the right to refuse a transfer. Failure to inform the organisers will mean the buyer will not receive any information about the event, and may be denied entry.
  • Any transfer MUST be to someone with the same ticket type and dance role i.e. follow to follow, lead to lead, etc.
  • A ticket transfer is not complete until confirmation is sent to both parties by Oxford Lindy Hoppers. *

**3. Cancellation or postponement by OLH **

Any events may be subject to change, postponement or cancellation including at short notice. If Oxford Lindy Hoppers need to reschedule or cancel the event, we will aim to offer a full refund to all attendees, but this is not guaranteed as we may be unable to reclaim costs paid to venues, suppliers or performers. We also cannot be held liable for any loss including non-refundable travel and accommodation. Any refund will be made within 90 days of the any cancellation being notified
