Red Imp T&Cs:

Many of our bigger acts use our gig as a 'work in progress' and may be using notes. Whilst we endeavour to keep our line ups as advertised, due to the nature of showbiz if one of our acts is offered Hollywood, TV or a massive corporate gig that we cannot compete with, line ups are subject to change, even on the day of the gig. Any change of headliner and you will be notified via email and a refund offered. Please note, the booking fee will not be refunded. We will do our level best to find a like for like headliner. Any change of MC or support act will not be notified as we assume you don't really give a monkeys. All seating is unreserved and any ticket holder who hasn't arrived by the first interval may not get a seat but be offered standing at the back. We will fill your seat as we will assume you are doing a 'no show'. Doors 7:30pm, Show 8pm, unless stated otherwise.
