Frequently asked questions

Can I include a no-refund policy?

Yes, but you must clearly state it in the agreement. Many venues offer refunds only if the event is cancelled or postponed. Be aware that some states have specific laws regarding refunds for cancelled events, so it's wise to consult with legal counsel.

Is it legal to prohibit ticket resale?

In most states, you can restrict resale, but you cannot completely ban it if the event is subject to certain consumer protection laws. You can require resale through an official platform or set price caps. Check your state's specific anti-scalping laws.

Do I need to include an ADA statement?

Yes. The Americans with Disabilities Act requires venues to provide reasonable accommodations, including accessible seating. Including an ADA statement in your agreement helps ensure compliance and shows your commitment to inclusivity.
