Terms & Conditions
Application of terms and conditions
The purchase of tickets for events by Monkey Baa Theatre Company, plus attendance at these events, are subject to the following terms and conditions, as well as any additional terms and conditions described at the time of purchase.

These terms and conditions apply to tickets issued directly by us, as well as any issued by other authorised ticket sellers. The terms and conditions of these other authorised sellers may also apply to your purchase, but in the event of inconsistency, our terms and conditions will prevail.
These terms and conditions are guided by industry best practice, as outlined in the Live Performance Ticketing Code of Practice: Consumer Code.
Ticket prices, order limits and delivery mechanisms
Ticket prices are displayed in Australian dollars and include GST where applicable. A transaction fee may apply to your ticket purchase, and if this is the case, you will be notified prior to purchase.
Your tickets will be delivered via email upon purchasing your tickets, unless otherwise specified or otherwise selected by you during purchase.
Credit card purchases
If purchasing tickets by credit card, the name on the card must match the name of the ticket buyer.

Final numbers for school/OOSH booking are required 4-6 weeks from the date of the performance. Bookings made within 6 weeks of the performance date require full payment upon booking.
Payment for school bookings must be received by the ‘payment due date’ listed on your deposit invoice or your booking will be automatically released.
