Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any hidden fees?

No. Our £360 rate is fully inclusive of your venue hire, standard technical rig, and dedicated Front of House staff.

Can I split the box office instead?

We operate strictly on a flat-fee hire basis. This structure protects artists, ensuring you keep the vast majority of your profits if your show sells well.

Do you help with marketing?

We list your show on our website, through the TicketQuarter network, and amplify your content on our social media channels. You are responsible for your core marketing campaign.

Can I hold back tickets for press and cast comps?

You have full control over your allocation. When we set-up your box office, we will give you codes for complimentary tickets and press tickets.
