Can I transfer my tickets to another person?
Yes, free of charge: tap "Transfer Tickets" on your ticket in the Fever app. If you need more help, contact support and include your ticket order number.
Can I change the date or time of my ticket?
Date changes are possible up to 24 hours in advance: contact support with your ticket ID, which you'll find in your confirmation email or in the app. You can also check whether your ticket in the "Tickets" section shows an "Exchange date and/or time" button. Refunds are not available under any circumstances.
Can I get a refund for my ticket?
No. Refunds are not permitted under any circumstances. The Flexible Cancellation add-on offers an alternative policy.
What if I purchased a Flexible Cancellation ticket? Can I get a refund then?
You can cancel by contacting support up to 48 hours before the experience starts. The ticket becomes non-refundable if it is transferred to another user.
What is "Candlelight Photo"?
It's an exclusive, personalized photo session in a designated area. You receive a single Polaroid-style instant print as a keepsake.
Can I buy "Candlelight Photo" at the venue?
Yes, as long as it hasn't sold out. Guests who bought it on the website have priority over those buying on site. On-site payment is by credit card only; cash is not accepted.
When is my picture taken?
Before the concert. The photo experience ends 10 minutes before the concert starts, so arrive at least 30 minutes early.
When do I get my photo?
You choose your favorite photo before it is printed. Staff print it during the concert and you collect it at the exit. Photos can't be stored, so collect yours before leaving: if you leave without it, it can't be refunded or rescheduled.
Where do I go to have my picture taken?
Once you're inside, venue staff will explain the photo experience. Ask any staff member if you have questions.
What is the "Candles 3-Pack"?
It includes three premium electric candles that recreate the flickering glow of a candle flame.
What is the policy for Candles 3-Packs purchased online?
They must be collected at the designated spot at the venue on the day of the event, as they are tied to that event's date and location. All candle add-ons purchased online and picked up on site are final sale: non-refundable and non-returnable.
What are the different seating zones?
The seating area is divided into zones based on the view of the stage. Seats are assigned at the entrance by staff, on a first-come, first-served basis, within the zone you selected.
Can my friends and I sit together?
Yes, as long as you arrive together and all have tickets for the same zone. We recommend arriving early; staff will do their best to seat you together.
Is there an age requirement?
Guests must be 8 years old or older. Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
Are tickets available for purchase at the entrance?
No. Tickets are only sold in the Fever app or on the Fever website.
When should I arrive?
Doors open 45 minutes before the show. Arrive at least 30 minutes early to be seated in your zone. Doors close 5 minutes before the start, and late arrivals will not be admitted, out of respect for the performers and other guests.
Can I get a ticket for a carer?
Guests who need assistance can request one free pass for a personal assistant or support worker by contacting Fever. You'll receive a voucher to redeem in the app, subject to availability.

Can I use my phone during the performance?
Phones must stay on silent throughout the performance. Photos and videos are only allowed during the final piece, without flash, when the musicians indicate.
