От начала до конца

Change the date or call off an event

A headliner pulls out, a venue loses its licence or the sales never came, and an organiser has hours rather than days to decide. Getting the choice right first is what saves the money and the audience: postponing, cancelling and refunding lead to very different places, and only one of them can be undone.

Work out whether to postpone, cancel or refund, tell ticket holders before they hear it anywhere else, and finish the clean-up the change leaves behind.

Для кого
Choosing between a new date, calling an event off and refunding buyers

Перед началом

  • You are an owner or admin for the event. Both changes are unavailable after the event has ended and after its funds have been paid out.
  • You know what the event has sold and what refunding all of it would cost you, because that figure decides as much as the artist does.
  • You have checked what your terms, artist agreement and venue contract commit you to. The dashboard offers the choices; your contracts narrow them.
  1. Choose the change that fits

    Choose between a new date, calling the event off and refunding some of the orders.

    • Postpone: The event happens on a later date, orders stay, and you choose who may ask for a refund. It works with or without a confirmed new date.
    • Cancel: The event will not happen at all. Ticket Fairy refunds the event within one to two days, apart from orders it cannot refund, and only support can reverse it.
    • Refund some orders: The event goes ahead with a change that affects only some buyers, such as a dropped support act or a moved stage.

    Примечание: Choose postponement whenever a later date is plausible. A postponed event can still be cancelled later, and a cancelled one is hard to bring back.

  2. Make the change where it lives

    Open Event Details to postpone or cancel, and Orders to refund one order at a time.

    Примечание: Postponing and cancelling are whole-event actions with their own dialogs. There is no partial-refund dialog: you refund each order from the Orders page.

  3. Tell ticket holders in your own words

    Email every ticket holder the same day, saying what changed, what it means for their ticket and what you are doing next.

    Примечание: Postponement sends its own email when you confirm it, while cancellation lets buyers hear from the refund instead. Your message is the one that explains it.

  4. Update the event page to match

    Change the event description so anyone who reaches the page reads the same thing your email said.

    Примечание: The page keeps selling to people who never got the email until it says otherwise. A cancelled event still saves its description and artwork.

  5. Finish the clean-up the change left

    Check the sale windows, the door times, the scheduled messages and any advertising that still points at the old plan.

    Примечание: A postponed event keeps every time you set separately: last entry, doors, ticket-level entry and scheduled emails all still hold the old date until you move them.

Или поручите это помощнику

Fai can read the ticket sales back to you, open the page where you make the change, and draft the message to ticket holders. Take her figure as ticket sales rather than the whole bill: add-ons and instalment plans sit outside it.

Let buyers refund themselves instead

  1. Turn on self-service refunds

    Let ticket holders refund their own orders when you expect many requests and want your team out of the middle.

    Примечание: This suits a postponement more than a cancellation, because a cancellation refunds everybody anyway.

Fai can open the event so you can switch self-service refunds on. How many buyers used them is read on the Orders page today.

Offer the ticket to another buyer

  1. Open resale for the people who cannot come

    Let buyers who cannot make the new date pass their ticket on at face value instead of refunding it.

    Примечание: This keeps the money on the event and fills the room, which a refund does neither of. It suits a postponement to a date some buyers cannot make.

Fai can open the event so you can turn resale on. The resale figures are read in the dashboard today.

Вопросы, которые могут возникнуть

Which choice can I undo?
Postponement. You can change the date, change who may refund, or remove the postponed status yourself. Only Ticket Fairy support can reverse a cancellation.
Can I decide later, once I have a new date?
Yes. Postpone without publishing a date, then reveal it when the venue and the artists are confirmed. Ticket holders hear that plans changed without waiting.
What if the money has already been paid out?
Neither change is available once the funds have left. Contact Ticket Fairy support with the event ID and what you need to do.
Do I have to refund everybody when I postpone?
No. You choose whether every ticket holder, only those who bought before the postponement, or nobody can ask for a refund.
