General Terms and Conditions of Sale

The present general conditions of sale are applicable to all ticket orders placed through this Internet site.

Therefore, the confirmation of the order for a ticket made through this website implies the Customer’s full acceptance, without reservation, of the present General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU reserves the right to adapt or modify the present General Terms and Conditions of Sale at any time. If changed, the applicable General Terms and Conditions of Sale are those in force on the date when the ticket is purchased.

No special condition or other General Terms and Conditions of Sale emanating from the Customer may prevail over those stated herein without express agreement by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU.

Any contrary condition opposed by the Customer shall therefore be void, in the absence of express acceptance by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU no matter when it has been brought to their attention.

The fact that ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU does not invoke at a given time any one of the present General Terms and Conditions of Sale does not mean they renounce their right to invoke at a later date any of the present Conditions.

It is hereby stated that the event organiser keeps the full and entire ownership of the show tickets. The same applies when ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU intervenes solely on behalf of the organisers/suppliers for the purpose of selling tickets.

As a result, the present General Terms and Conditions of Sale only refer to ticket sale services and not the show or event itself.

We strongly recommend that you print a copy of the present General Terms and Conditions for reference.

 

ARTICLE 1: Ticket Prices  

1.1 The prices of the tickets are shown in Euros and are indicated inclusive of all taxes.

1.2 Rental fees: Should the shows not be organised by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU, rental fees ranging from €1.20 to €2.00 per ticket (all taxes included) shall be charged. However, the price does not include management fees which may be charged at €1 per ticket.

1.3 Rates, including management fees, may be modified at any time by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU. The applicable rates are those in force on the date of the order confirmation.

1.4 Depending on the events, different types of rates may be proposed for one single event. The rate selected by the Customer as well as the price paid with the order confirmation shall not be modified without the express consent of the event organisers.

1.5 When ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU intervenes only as an intermediary of the ticket organisers/suppliers, show tickets shall remain the exclusive property of the event organiser until the full and final collection of the price by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU is made.

1.6 All orders, no matter where they are placed from, are payable in Euros.

ARTICLE 2: Availability and numbers of tickets  

2.1 ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU shall inform the Customer in real time about the availability of the requested tickets when the order is being placed. Our algorithm allocates the best seats according to availability.

2.2 The total number of tickets sold per event shall not be superior to the number of tickets set by the organiser. The ticket quota shall be defined for each Event.

2.3 It is hereby stated that the event organisers may lay down conditions of use of tickets and/or rules. Any ticket purchase implies the obligation for the Customer to respect the terms.

2.4 According to the type of show or event, especially regarding sports events, the organiser may reserve the right to provide Customers with a two-stub ticket at the venue. In this case, tickets are to be picked up 30 minutes prior to the show.

2.6 ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU draws the Customer’s attention to the fact that, considering the number of tickets ordered, the allocated tickets may concern seats divided between the desired category and other categories. The ordered seats may also be part of the same category without being adjacent. Should these seats not suit the Customer, they shall have the possibility to cancel them by clicking on the corresponding button.

2.7 This page only constitutes a pending order and may not be considered as a firm and final booking until payment is made. Depending on each event, it is possible that the organiser, or ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU, sets a maximum quota of tickets available for booking, accumulated per purchase. This quota will be defined when required. One single Customer cannot place several orders at different times to circumvent this rule.

ARTICLE 3: Location of seats  

In the process of booking, the Customer may view the seats on a seating map, if available, and if they are numbered. Seats shall be displayed on the map by category and subcategory. The seating map may not be considered as a contractual commitment by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU.

The seating map is given for information purposes only and aims to be as representative as possible. However, depending on the real dimensions of the hall depicted on the map, the location shown may not be representative of precise seats but of a group of seats that includes those seats wanted by the purchaser.

ARTICLE 4: Methods of payment  

4.1 All payments are to be made exclusively by credit/debit card.

4.2 Online payment is made solely by CARTE BLEUE/VISA or EUROCARD/MASTERCARD.

4.3 The order amount shall be debited from the Customer’s bank account when the transaction is fully confirmed.

4.4 Following each transaction, the Customer shall be provided with proof of payment. This document shall be sent to their personal space which is automatically created on the Internet site.

4.5 Each bank transaction leads to the creation of one single ticket. Each ticket is for a specific person and cannot correspond to several seats. In the case of a collective purchase, tickets are all generated one after the other as a single PDF file.                                                          

ARTICLE 5: Order confirmation

5.1 The confirmation of the order for a ticket made through this site leads to the final and binding completion of the contract and implies the Customer’s acceptance without reservation of the present Terms and Conditions of Sale.

5.2 Unless the contrary is proven, the data registered by ANTIBES JUAN-LES-PINS TOURISM AND CONVENTION BUREAU constitutes evidence of the totality of the orders placed between the latter and the Customers.
