Ticket purchase
Availability for purchase:
Demand for certain events sold on Kilkenny Roots Festival can be extremely high with many customers simultaneously buying tickets through the website, shop and phone.
As both the capacity of the venue and the number of tickets allocated to Kilkenny Roots Festival is limited it is not possible to guarantee customers that tickets will be available for purchase.
System Malfunction or Failure:
Kilkenny Roots Festival is not responsible for any loss, inconvenience or expenses incurred by the customer in the event of malfunction or failure of the system which may result in failure to secure any or the desired number of tickets.
Kilkenny Roots Festival is dependent on other external suppliers of services (i.e., web hosting, hardware supply and support, remote back-up and disk mirroring) in providing services to customers and customers recognize that Kilkenny Roots Festival can only rely on those suppliers pursuant to their individual terms and conditions and service level agreements. In the event that Kilkenny Roots Festival experiences difficulties with one or more of its suppliers it will make every effort towards rectifying any such problems
Ticket Purchase Limitations:
Kilkenny Roots Festival reserves the right to limit the number of tickets and type of tickets which can be ordered by a customer either in single or multiple orders.
If such a limitation exists, it will be clearly noted and it will not be possible to purchase more than this stated amount.
Kilkenny Roots Festival reserves the right to cancel without notice any order placed by a customer trying to exceed the specified ticket limit, by whatever means. Please note that in such cases, all orders will be placed by the customer will be cancelled and no tickets will, therefore, be obtained.
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that any orders placed do not exceed the stated maximum ticket limit.
Order Acceptance:
Kilkenny Roots Festival reserves the right to refuse any order or cancel an existing order without notice or providing a reason.
We also reserve the right to cancel any or all orders originating from a single delivery address irrespective of whether the orders originate from a single customer or multiple individual customers.
Order completion:
Kilkenny Roots Festival will not be held responsible for any inconvenience or loss caused by a failure on the customer’s part to complete and successfully place an order for tickets.
The customer is wholly responsible for ensuring that their ticket order has been completed and has been successful.
If you are unclear as to whether your order for tickets has been successfully placed and to avoid inadvertently placing multiple orders, please read the related article in our FAQ.
It is the customer’s responsibility to note and safely keep the confirmation number associated with their order for future reference. This number is needed by Kilkenny Roots Festival customer support when dealing with queries. If you do not have your order confirmation number, it may not be possible for Kilkenny Roots Festival to deal with your query.
Ticket selection:
Kilkenny Roots Festival will not be held responsible for any aspect of incorrect selection of tickets by the customer including, but not limited to, event, day and/or time of performance, ticket quantity, ticket type, seating assigned and ticket delivery method.
The customer is wholly responsible for ensuring that all aspects of their ticket order are correct.
When purchasing from Kilkenny Roots Festival please take your time and make sure you are selecting the correct tickets. Before confirming the purchase, please review all the ticket information displayed which is based on the choices you made and ensure these are fully correct.

Kilkenny Roots Festival will not be held responsible for such erroneous orders and cannot refund, cancel, exchange or amend tickets ordered as a result of multiple orders being placed.

If you encounter repeated problems while ordering and are still not clear whether you have ordered successfully or not, please do not submit multiple orders, but instead, contact Kilkenny Roots Festival customer support for assistance.
Order Time Limit:
Kilkenny Roots Festival 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 the 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.
Delivery Options:
Tickets will be emailed to the customer and will contain the QR codes for each ticket in the order. Where customers have an account on our site, they will also be able to view their tickets on the customer dashboard. Tickets can be re-emailed again if necessary.
Account Blocking:
As a private company, Kilkenny Roots Festival is not obliged to contract with any customer. Kilkenny Roots Festival reserves the absolute right to block any customer from using the Kilkenny Roots Festival website or any other facilities offered by Kilkenny Roots Festival. Accounts can be blocked for indefinite periods at the discretion of Kilkenny Roots Festival.
Taxes and Duties:
By ordering on Kilkenny Roots Festival you agree that you are responsible for paying any taxes applicable to such purchases.
Event Cancellation / Rescheduling
Event Cancellation:
From time to time, events are cancelled by the promoter, band or venue.
Should this happen, we will try to contact you as early as possible by e-mail, with the e-mail address you have supplied at the time of booking.
In most cases, refunds are for the basic cost of the tickets purchased as booking fees are non-refundable.
Event Rescheduling:
From time to time, events are rescheduled by the promoter, band or venue.
Should this happen, we will try to contact you as early as possible by e-mail, with the e-mail address you have supplied at the time of booking.
If an event is rescheduled, you will be informed of the new date/venue once it is confirmed. You can then attend the rescheduled event if you wish or opt to receive a refund.
Kilkenny Roots Festival will communicate a cut-off date by email by which time refund requests must be made. Refund requests made after this date will not be entertained, although you will still be able to use your tickets or contact us to arrange for someone else to use them instead if you wish.
Inconvenience, loss or expenses arising from cancelled events:
Kilkenny Roots Festival will not be held responsible for any inconvenience, losses of any kind or expenses incurred by the customer as a result of an event being cancelled, rescheduled or moved to a different venue.
The customer is wholly responsible for any expenses which they incur in order to facilitate attending an event. This includes all transport, accommodation, subsistence, miscellaneous and all other relevant costs not mentioned here.
Please be aware that shows can, and are, cancelled and rescheduled from time to time and be prepared for this eventuality. You should make financial provision for this possibility personally or take out appropriate insurance to cover any such losses.
Booking travel/accommodation:
If you are travelling especially to attend an event, please ensure appropriate travel and accommodation options are available to you before booking tickets on Kilkenny Roots Festival.
If travelling from abroad, please be aware that certain times of year are very popular with tourists. At these times, hotel and transport availability can be very limited and prices rise substantially. You should always check when local bank holidays, other major public events are occurring.
Kilkenny Roots Festival cannot cancel, refund, amend or exchange any tickets ordered in cases where the customer has subsequently discovered that transport and accommodation options are prohibitively expensive.
