Tickets may not, without the prior written consent of Mona, be re-sold or offered for resale (including via online auction sites) or used for advertising, promotion or other commercial purposes (including but not limited to competitions and trade promotions) or to enhance the demand for other goods or services, either by the original purchaser or any subsequent holder.

10. Mona may refuse entry to the Sites and/or access to the Goods and Services if you are late, and you will not be reimbursed or refunded for your Ticket or associated fees in such circumstance.

11. Tickets must be treated like cash. Tickets will be deemed invalid if:

  • a. they are lost, stolen, destroyed, tampered with, defaced, or damaged so that Mona cannot verify the authenticity of the Ticket (e.g. through proof of purchase); or
  • b. Mona reasonably suspects that fraud, scalping (tickets resold at a premium) or other improper use has taken place.

12. For certain Goods and Services, Tickets will have your name printed on them or will be otherwise registered to your name. You are responsible for checking that all information provided at the time of purchase is accurate and correct. Staff may check your Photo ID to ensure the name on your Photo ID matches the name on, or registered to, your Ticket. If the name on, or registered to, your Ticket does not match the name on your Photo ID, your Ticket may be invalid. The name on your Ticket, or the name to which your Ticket is registered, may only be changed at the discretion of Mona by contacting tickets@mona.net.au or phone (03) 6277 9978. Please note changes may be subject to payment of an administration fee.

No Refunds unless from Official Third Party Ticketing Partners

24. Mona and our Official Third Party Ticketing Partners are the only authorised sellers of Tickets. If you purchase Tickets from another source, individual, or any other unauthorised reseller, you risk that these Tickets are fake, void, or have previously been cancelled. Purchasing tickets from an unauthorised ticket seller means that we cannot refund you if the Goods and Services are cancelled, and we cannot inform you of important changes to the Goods and Services (including reschedules or relocations).

Relocation, Reschedule or Event Cancellation

25. Mona may, at its sole discretion, cancel, relocate or reschedule an event or Goods and Service. As a result of such cancellation, reschedule or significant relocation Mona will provide an opportunity for a refund of the Ticket price amount only and is not liable for any losses incurred by you as a result of the reschedule, relocation or cancellation of Goods and Services including but not limited to: accommodation, flights and/or transport expenses.

26. If an event or ticketed service is rescheduled or significantly relocated and you cannot or do not wish to attend the rescheduled or relocated event you must apply for a refund:

  • a. within four (4) weeks of our publication of the reschedule date(s)(as advertised on the Website or otherwise notified to you); and
  • b. no less than 72 hours prior to the rescheduled or relocated event.

Once your request has been received Mona will process a refund to the original payment method. If you do not request a refund within that time it will be determined that you have agreed to the advertised changes to the event and you shall not be entitled to any refund or exchange.

27 If the Goods and Services are cancelled by Mona, then we will grant you a refund (less any booking fees and charges). Refunds will be automatically processed to the original payment method within four (4) weeks from the announcement of cancellation.

28. If only part of the Goods and Services are cancelled, significantly relocated, rescheduled, or otherwise significantly varied, we may offer you a pro-rata refund if it is reasonable to do so in the circumstances.
