In making a booking for LUX you are accepting our Terms & Conditions - full details HERE

 

BOOKING FAQs

Why can't I make a booking - it says 'on hold'?

As all our events are gender balanced booking options are limited for some categories. This will mostly apply to solo lady bookings (as these tend to sell out quickly) but can sometimes also apply to solo guy and gender balanced couple bookings too. On this basis if you link to the booking page and it says that you're preferred booking option is 'on hold' it will be because we have reached our current limit for that category. This can change as we lead up to an event so please do check back. However, most updates regarding bookings are generally posted on our Facebook event page HERE so this is a good place to check for changes as well as posting for a booking partner if you're a solo lady.

After I make a booking do I get a ticket?

No, sending out physical tickets not only adds expense and administration it can also lead to delays and lost tickets. On this basis when you make a booking your name is added to our door list to be checked on entry. After making a booking you should receive a booking confirmation. There is generally no need to bring this with you but it's good practice do to so in case there are any problems with your booking.

I don't seem to have received a booking confirmation?

Booking confirmations are sent out by our system for all purchases. However, sometimes they get diverted to your spam folder (so check there first) and sometimes they are deleted by your email manager without you seeing them - this is more often the case with Hotmail and Yahoo accounts but also with Gmail now too. The general rule is that if money has been taken from your account, then your booking is confirmed. If you are in any doubt please do contact us via our contact page HERE and we'll look into it for you. We will be able to create a duplicate confirmation email and be able to double check the email address used at the time of booking to ensure all future emails are received.

Do you buy unwanted bookings/tickets back?

Sorry, no. No major event organiser buy's tickets back from people who have bought a ticket and who then for whatever reason cannot make the event. However, as many of our events sell out there's a good chance that you can sell your ticket to someone else by putting a message on our Facebook event page HERE

​​

What happens if I sell my booking/ticket to someone else?

Whilst you are at liberty to sell your booking/ticket on to someone else it remains your responsibility to organise payment of that ticket with the person(s) concerned to ensure the money comes back to you - and it also remains your responsibility to inform us of the change of name(s) to assure they change is noted on our door entry system. For any changes to your booking you must therefore let us know the details via our contact page HERE

Is my initial deposit refundable if I find I cannot attend and consequently complete my balance payment?

We are unable issue refunds as the deposits paid for the event go towards our own non refundable deposit payments to book the venue and event spaces. However your booking is transferrable, meaning that if you have paid a deposit but not completed your balance payment,  you can still pass this onto someone else. In this scenario, the person purchasing your booking will pay you the deposit amount and will pay the balance to the hotel in accordance with the terms of booking. You must then inform us of any name changes  and ensure that your ticket is sold to someone of the same gender as per the initial booking.

I am booking on behalf of a group. Who is liable for the balance?

As the Group Leader it is your responsibility to ensure the balance payment is made, and the hotel can only take the balance payment in one instalment from one person to make the process manageable for them. On this basis, please ensure that you
receive monies from the other people in your party in good time.

As solo lady spaces sell out quickly how do I know when tickets first go on sale?

If you would like to receive regular emails about all our events and when bookings open then head to our main UTOPIA website HERE and simply complete the subscription form that is shown at the bottom of every page of the website.
