In the event that Ridley Hall has to cancel the event

We reserve the right to cancel the event in the event of circumstances beyond our control that result in us having to cancel it. In the case of any such cancellation, we will inform you at the earliest opportunity and refund you in full.

Cancellations (by you) prior to two weeks before the event date

For cancellations up to two weeks before the event, there will be no charge. Please contact us prior to two weeks before the event date to inform us of your cancellation.

Cancellations before the day and up to two weeks before the event date

Due to costs incurred in preparations for the event, we are unfortunately not able to offer full refunds for events cancelled during the two weeks preceding the event. Your deposit will therefore be retained.
