Award ceremonies

Tickets

How many tickets can I order?
When you respond to the invitation you will be able to order a maximum of two guest tickets. You will have to pay for them at the same time, as guest tickets cannot be reserved without payment. There is no free allocation of tickets and all guest tickets must be paid for in advance.

How much do the tickets cost?
Tickets for this ceremony cost £20. The ceremony is not suitable for young children and tickets must be purchased for older children.

When can I order additional guest tickets?
Additional guest tickets should be available online from Wednesday 12 June; if you return to the ceremony website (www.brighton.ac.uk/ceremony) and sign in as before, you may be able to purchase extra tickets after this date. Tickets will be removed from sale the week before the ceremony, and in some instances earlier. In the event that the ceremony sells out, it is unlikely that there will be tickets available on the day.

Are tickets refundable?
We regret that tickets are non-refundable unless you do not receive your award – in these circumstances your money will be refunded automatically.

When will I receive my tickets?
Tickets are collected on the day from the registration desk at the Brighton Dome. They are not sent in advance. Please do not telephone enquiring after guest tickets that you have ordered, they can only be collected on the day of the ceremony. You will receive a receipt via e-mail for tickets purchased online.

Will my guests be sitting next to each other?
Yes. Guests are not allocated numbered seats and may sit anywhere within the auditorium other than reserved seating. While receipts will be sent via email for tickets purchased online, we cannot issue acknowledgements or receipts for ticket orders posted to us.

What should I do if I (or my guests) have a disability or access requirements?
If you and/or your guests have additional needs which may require special seating arrangements, please let us know immediately either while completing the online form, or by sending us a note, so that appropriate arrangements can be made. There are steps down from the stage which recipients would normally descend, and that the safety regulations at the Brighton Dome limit the number of wheelchair users so early contact is essential.

We can provide an induction loop if you or any of your guests require them. The venue requires us to take a £10 deposit, which will be refundable on return.
