Booking fees
From 1 September 2011, Colston Hall's booking fees will change. Details of the new booking fees are below.
Colston Hall charge an 8% booking fee per ticket, plus a £1.50 delivery fee per transaction.
For example that's a booking fee of 40p on a £5 ticket, £1.60 on a £20 ticket, and £2.40 on a £30 ticket. A single delivery fee of £1.50 is also charged per transaction, no matter how many tickets you book at one time.
We do not charge either a booking fee or delivery fee for purchases made in person and by cheque or cash at Colston Hall's Box Office, but a booking fee will be charged on credit or debit card payments.
A booking fee and delivery fee is charged for all purchases made by telephone and online. Tickets are delivered by first class post.
We do not charge booking fees for gift vouchers when ordered over the phone but a delivery fee is still payable.
Colston Hall may also act as an agency selling tickets for outside events and events at other venues, and usually the same booking fees and delivery fees will apply, but this may be varied from time to time.
Concerts with a general admission standing area only
Seats in the front area of the stalls are removed to create a standing area. The rest of the seats remain and are unreserved. If you buy a ticket for the stalls you have the choice of either standing or sitting.
For patrons booking tickets in the balcony, seats are reserved and will be allocated upon purchase. Please note that ticket holders cannot transfer from the balcony to the stalls or vice versa.
Data protection
Once you have booked tickets for a Colston Hall concert your name and address will be held and processed on our box office and marketing databases and, from time to time, we will send you information about similar concerts and activities using the information you have provided.
Other carefully selected local arts organisations may also be interested in sending you information on events they think will be of interest. If you do not wish to receive any further information you should inform the box office when booking.
Terms and conditions of sale
Please examine your tickets carefully upon receipt as mistakes cannot be rectified, tickets exchanged or monies refunded at a later date.
