Once tickets have been purchased, we cannot offer an exchange or refund. Please also note that if the site has to be closed for safety reasons, alternative dates will be offered to those effected. If you cannot make an alternative date offered, refunds will be considered on a case by case basis. Refunds will not be issued because of bad weather.

Yes, we do. Please use the following link to submit your request: https://www.illuminate-ipswich.co.uk/personal-assistance-ticket-scheme(https://www.illuminateoxfordshire.co.uk/personal-assistance-ticket-scheme) Supporting evidence to show that a carer is required will be needed in order to claim your free carer ticket under our Personal Assistance Ticket Scheme terms and conditions. Evidence includes CredAbility’s Access Card with the +1 symbol, along with other supporting documentation. Please do not apply unless you have the documentation outlined, as applications cannot be approved without it. If approved, PA/carer tickets are automatically sent to your email. Please note that we are unable to fast-track applications due to demand. We keep a separate allocation of these tickets, so if your chosen time slot sells out, your approved PA/carer ticket will still be valid. Carer ticket applications can take up to 10 working days to be issued. You are welcome to make your booking in the meantime while we process your request. If 10 days have passed and you have not received a ticket or any communication, your application has been declined.

Yes, those that are in possession of a child ticket will require an adult over the age of 18 to accompany them into Illuminate.

If you purchased TicketPlan insurance, please be aware that this is a third-party insurance service operated through FIXR on a national scale. We do not directly handle any TicketPlan claims, cancellations, or refunds. All claims must be made directly through TicketPlan, following their official guidelines (this is only available if you purchased TicketPlan protection). For full details on how to submit a TicketPlan claim, please visit the FIXR help article here: https://help.fixr.co/en/articles/7182899-i-purchased-ticketplan-can-i-have-a-refund(https://help.fixr.co/en/articles/7182899-i-purchased-ticketplan-can-i-have-a-refund) Think of TicketPlan like travel insurance you buy through an airline. You decide to purchase it at the same time as your ticket, but the airline doesn’t handle your insurance claim - the insurance company does. It works exactly the same here: you buy TicketPlan through FIXR, but any refund requests or claims must go directly through TicketPlan.

We’re pleased to offer Flexi Tickets - a simple way to change your booking, because we know plans can sometimes change! Flexi Tickets allow you to reschedule your entire booking up to 7 days before your original visit date. Please note: You will not be able to alter your booking if you have not purchased a Flexi Ticket. How far in advance do I need to request a change? • Flexi Ticket holders can change their booking up to 7 days before their original visit date. • Your new date must be at least 7 days from the day you submit your request.(Our customer service team operates Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm.) • Requests made within 7 days of your original visit cannot be accepted. How do I know if my preferred new date is available? • It is the ticket holder’s responsibility to check availability before submitting a request. If you request a fully booked session, your request will be declined and you will need to submit a new request. Does the Flexi-Ticket apply to my whole order? • Yes. One Flexi Ticket covers one full booking, provided the lead name matches the entrance ticket holder’s name. Can I book a Flexi-Ticket after I've already booked? • Yes - if you didn’t purchase a Flexi Ticket originally, you can add one up to 10 days before your original booking date. After this point, Flexi Tickets can no longer be added to an existing order. What happens after I submit a Flexi-Ticket request? • Once you’ve submitted a Flexi Ticket request, your booking will be automatically processed, and new tickets will be issued for your chosen date (subject to availability). This can take up to 5 working days. • If your booking does not have a Flexi Ticket associated with it, your request will be declined, and you will receive communication advising you to purchase a Flexi Ticket (if you are still within the eligible timeframe). • Your old tickets will be voided once approved, and your new tickets will be sent directly to your email via FIXR. How do I re-schedule my booking if I have a Flexi-Ticket? • If you have a Flexi Ticket, you can reschedule your booking by visiting: https://www.illuminate-ipswich.co.uk/bookingreschedule (https://www.illuminate-ipswich.co.uk/bookingreschedule)
