Booking Protect is an optional insurance product that you can take out at time of ticket purchase and is provided by a third party. Booking Protect does not provide any cover related to cancelled events. It only provides cover for a range of personal circumstances that may prevent you from attending the event as set out in their Terms & Conditions of the Booking Protect cover.

If you are retaining your ticket for 2021 and have paid for Booking Protect when you purchased your ticket then it remains valid and in place for the event in 2021 just as your ticket does.

The number of available tickets will depend on how many 2020 tickets are refunded, due to the fact that 2020 was a sold out event. There will be several ‘rounds’ of tickets available between May and October, as refunded tickets are placed back on sale to the general public.

If you purchase tickets for 2021 in one of the subsequent rounds of ticket sales between May and September, refunds are available on those tickets up until 30th September if requested.
