Ticket purchase

Availability

The Hot Spot Music Club does not guarantee the availability of tickets for any given event. Demand for certain events can often be much greater than the limited number of tickets that we have for sale.

System Malfunction

In the event of malfunction or failure of the online ticket system, The Hot Spot Music Club is not responsible for any loss or inconvenience by the customer. We are dependent on other external suppliers of services (i.e., web hosting, e-commerce solutions) in providing services to customers, we can only rely on those suppliers pursuant to their individual terms and conditions and service level agreements. Should we experience any difficulties, we will make every effort to rectify any problems with our suppliers.

Ticket Purchase Limitations

The Hot Spot Music Club reserves the right to limit the number of tickets which can be ordered by a customer in a single. Currently 10 tickets are the maximum, if you would like to purchase more it must be agreed upon by the venue and event organiser. We reserve the right to cancel without notice any order placed by a customer that exceeds the limit without having first sought approval.

Order Acceptance

The Hot Spot Music Club reserves the right to refuse any order or cancel an existing order without notice or providing a reason.

Order completion

The Hot Spot Music Club will not be held responsible for a customer’s failure to complete an order. The customer is wholly responsible for ensuring that their ticket order has been completed and has been successful. Please ensure that you have received an order confirmation email. In the event that a confirmation email does not arrive please check your spam/junk folder and/or check your credit / debit card to see if funds have been withdrawn before ordering again.

Order Time Limit

The Hot Spot Music Club will not be held responsible for any inconvenience or loss incurred in cases where the customer failed to complete the order within the maximum time limit allowed, either per individual page or for the entire order. If you do not complete your order within the specified time limit, the tickets you have selected are released back into the pool and become available for other customers to buy. This rule is common on all ticketing websites and is required to correctly manage sale of tickets for high-demand events. In the case of high-demand events, it is possible that all tickets will have been sold to other customers in the meantime and you will be unable to secure tickets to the event when you restart the purchase process. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that they complete their order within the specified time limit.

Seat Selection

As a small venue, The Hot Spot Music Club operates on a first come-first served basis so the earlier you arrive the better your choice of seats. Should you arrive after the show begins, we cannot guarantee seating - a seat booked in advance is not a seat guaranteed for the evening. However, if this situation arises due to unforeseen circumstances – we will do our best to accommodate you, either in the staged room or if that is not possible - in the lounge area.

Customer-Fulfilled Ticketing

In cases where the customer cannot provide the necessary facilities needed to support customer-fulfilled ticketing including ‘Print at Home’ tickets or ’email tickets delivered to the customer’s mobile phone’ - The Hot Spot Music Club keeps a back-up door list of ticket holders for check off, at each event.

Links from third party websites

The Hot Spot Music Club accepts no responsibility for any incorrect information presented on third party websites or erroneous orders resulting from incorrect links on such websites. Third party music and entertainment websites often take it upon themselves to link to The Hot Spot Music Club so their visitors can easily buy tickets. In such cases, it is the customer’s responsibility to double check that tickets selected are for the correct event, date and time and are at the expected price. The Hot Spot Music Club will not be held responsible for such erroneous orders and cannot refund, cancel or exchange tickets ordered as a result.
