Comprehensive quotes will be provided on request that include all other charges.

OTHER CHARGES
Other charges include early arrival or set up times, extended performances, performances outside typical hours, increased number of performers, additional equipment such as PA, lighting or effects in addition to that already provided by the artist, overnight accommodation, flights and transfers.

BOOKINGS

CONFIRMATION
One signed copy of this form must be returned within 7 days and, on receipt, 1311 Events.net will secure the artist for your event and provide contracts to the artist(s) to secure their engagement. You should keep one copy for your records. The information overleaf forms the basis of artist contracts and it is important that information is accurate to ensure a successful performance. A representative will contact you 4 weeks prior to the performance date to ensure all information is current.

PAYMENT
All bookings must be secured by a signed booking form and a deposit as advised at the time of your booking.
Balances will be due to either 1311 Events.net or the artist 21 days prior to the performance date. VAT will be charged @ 17.5% on any balance where 1311 Events.net accepts monies on behalf of the artist. The artist will not accept cheques as balance of payment on the date of the event without prior consent. Cheques for balances must be made payable to the artist unless otherwise arranged. A representative will contact you 4 weeks prior to your event to advise on balance payments.

CHANGES TO YOUR BOOKING
IF YOU MAKE CHANGES
For advice on amending a booking, please contact us on 0845 675 1311.
It may be possible for extended performance times to be negotiated directly with the artist on the performance date.
Any major changes to the original booking will incur a £25 administration fee and any appropriate charges on behalf of the artist such as extended performance times, additional performers etc.

IF THE ARTIST MAKES CHANGES
Where an artist (or member of an act) is unable to attend a performance due to illness or ‘force majeure’, a deputy or alternative will be provided of similar quality and experience to that performer. Any deputy provided should not affect the quality of any entertainment. All artists agree to advise 1311 Events.net should their act change from that advertised by 1311 Events.net.

CANCELLATIONS
To cancel a booking, the client must send 1311 Events.net a signed cancellation instruction in writing. This instruction must be sent to 1311 Events.net at the address on your booking confirmation. Cancellation takes effect on the date we receive your letter.
The outstanding balance/full performance fee will be due to the artist for cancellations made within 90 days of the performance date. Cancellations outside of 90 days of the performance date will result in the loss of any deposit paid.
All cancellations will incur a £25 administration fee. Outstanding payments from bookings and cancellations will be referred to our legal department if not received within 28 days of the due date.

IF THE ARTIST CANCELS
When the artist agrees to the performance either verbally, by email or in writing, the artist will be unable to cancel the booking for any reason other than those highlighted by ‘Force Majeure’.

All artists must notify 1311 Events.net immediately where a performance cannot be fulfilled as indicated in their contract. Failure to do so may result in action being taken by the client against the artist for non-fulfilment of their contract. Any artist cancelling their performance will be liable to additional fees where an alternative artists’ fee supplied by 1311 Events.net exceeds the original artists’ fee. In addition, a £25 administration fee will also be incurred. Any action taken by the client for non-fulfilment of booking is between the client and the artist. In addition, action taken by any client will not prejudice the right of 1311 Events.net taking action against the performers for damages or loss incurred by 1311 Events.net.

Where 1311 Events.net is aware that an artist is unable to attend, we will take all reasonable steps to find a suitable replacement for the performance. If unable to do so, a full refund will be given.

POSTPONEMENTS
If, due to Force Majeure, your event needs to be rescheduled, bookings must be rearranged prior to performance date and the rescheduled date must be within a 6 month period from the originally booked performance. Where an artist cannot reschedule due to lack of availability, a postponement will be treated as a cancellation. If your event cannot be rescheduled prior to the performance, the booking will be treated asa cancellation.

RE-ENGAGEMENT
The client and artist agree that subsequent bookings within a 12 month period, from any artist provided by 1311 Events.net will be booked directly with 1311 Events.net and not with the artist directly.
