• MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL FAQS

  

  WILL THE THEATRE HAVE A COVID-19 SAFE PLAN IN PLACE?

  Marriner Group (who operate the Regent Theatre) currently have measures in place as recommended by the Victorian Government, with the COVID Safe plan being updated with any changing regulations

  WHERE CAN I BUY TICKETS FOR MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL?

  Ticketmaster is the only authorised ticket seller for the Melbourne season, and this includes purchases of special seats and packages such as Can Can Table Seating and The Bohemian VIP Experience. Click here to access tickets.
  
  Moulin Rouge! The Musical is subject to a major event declaration under the Major Events Act 2009. It is an offence for a Moulin Rouge! The Musical ticket to be sold, or offered or advertised for resale, at a price exceeding its face value purchase price by more than 10%, unless the seller is authorised in writing by the ticketed event organiser. Breaches can result in heavy fines of up to $96,714 for an individual and $483,570 for a company. For queries regarding the Major Events Act, contact fairgo.forfans@ecodev.vic.gov.au
  
  We strongly recommend that you do not purchase tickets from any other website or unauthorised re-sellers (such as eBay, Viagogo, Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree) as these tickets may not be genuine, and may be charged at inflated prices. You purchase tickets from unauthorised ticket sellers solely at your own risk. The Regent Theatre is under no obligation to honour tickets which are deemed invalid for any reason and you may be refused entry.

  WHAT HAPPENS IF MY BOOKED PERFORMANCE IS CANCELLED DUE TO COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS?

  If your performance of Moulin Rouge! The Musical is cancelled, Ticketmaster will contact you via e-mail and SMS with full details on how to exchange or refund your booking.

  MAJOR EVENT DECLARATION

  To eliminate the risk of fraud, you are advised to purchase tickets from moulinrougemusical.com or ticketmaster.com.au, as purchasing a ticket from an unauthorised seller can result in the ticket holder being denied entry. Many unofficial sellers will list tickets for sale, even though they do not actually have those tickets. This is called “speculative ticketing”. They are speculating that they will be able to get tickets and then resell them to fans. Those speculative listings are not real tickets in hand (they do not actually have tickets to sell). Beware of these sellers. Moulin Rouge! The Musical is subject to a major event declaration under the Major Events Act 2009. It is an offence for a Moulin Rouge! The Musical ticket to be sold, or offered or advertised for resale, at a price exceeding its face value purchase price by more than 10%, unless the seller is authorised in writing by the ticketed event organiser. Breaches can result in heavy fines of up to $96,714 for an individual and $483,570 for a company. For queries regarding the Major Events Act, contact fairgo.forfans@ecodev.vic.gov.au

  WHAT IF A PERFORMANCE IS SOLD OUT?

  We anticipate demand will be high for HAMILTON tickets and recommend that customers book early for best availability. If the performance you wish to attend is sold out, we recommend the following:

  • Look further into the season for other performances.
  • Saturday matinees and evenings and Sunday matinees will be the performances that are highest in demand, so consider attending a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Sunday evening performance.

  Covid-19 FAQs:

  Is there a risk in attending an event?

  Covid–19 is an infectious disease that can result in serious and potentially fatal illness. There is a risk of the transmission of Covid–19 in any environment where people gather. This risk increases in enclosed spaces and with increased numbers of people. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has advised that the elderly and those with underlying medical conditions are more vulnerable. Further information can be found on the WHO’s website.

  Whilst Event Partners should all be adopting enhanced Covid-safe measures that align with relevant government orders, directions and guidance to help attendees stay safe, the risk cannot be completely eliminated. By attending an event, you assume all risk associated with Covid-19 (unless caused by the negligence of the Event Partner). You must also:                              

  • abide by all government guidance aimed at preventing the transmission of the virus (details of which, at the federal level, can be accessed via the following link. You should also make yourself aware of current government guidance in your own State or Territory and in the State or Territory where the venue for your event is located; and
  • follow all directions provided by the Event Partner and their staff members designed to create a safe environment for event attendees.

  Ticketmaster sells tickets on behalf of our Event Partners (including venues) and is not responsible for organising or delivering the events themselves. Ticketmaster does not accept any risk associated with attending an event or otherwise linked to Covid-19 (unless directly arising from our negligence or breach of the Australian Consumer Law). Please see our terms and conditions for further details.

  What if I have recently been diagnosed with Covid, have Covid-like symptoms, am quarantining/self-isolating or think I might have been exposed to someone who has Covid?

  Please check local health advice for your area and the area where the show is taking place. The latest national guidance is published here. Current guidance in most locations is that you should not attend an event if you are feeling unwell, or if you are required to quarantine or self-isolate due to Covid-19. Please check government requirements and the requirements of the relevant venue and/or Event Partner as they apply to you.  

   I’m worried about Coronavirus COVID-19. Can I get a refund?

  If your event is going ahead as planned then you’re all set, your tickets remain valid. You can check out which events have been cancelled or rescheduled on our information portal.

  I’m worried about Coronavirus COVID-19. Can I make a claim through my ticket insurance?

  You will need to discuss this with Allianz directly. Allianz provided the ticket insurance that was available on our websites. You can contact them via email at Ticketmaster@allianz-assistance.com.au.

  What if my event is cancelled or postponed due to Coronavirus COVID-19?

  If your event has been cancelled, there’s nothing you need to do. We’ll get in touch with you directly with more information.

  If your event has been rescheduled, we are working with the event organiser to identify new dates and we will contact you as soon as we have confirmation and more information on this.

  What is being done at venues to minimise the risk of spreading Covid-19?

   Venues should all be adopting new and enhanced Covid-safe measures to help attendees stay safe.  Please refer to the venue’s website for specific information.

  What are your COVID screening requirements?

  Updated: November 12, 2020

  We have noticed there has been some misreporting around safety protocols. To clarify, there is absolutely no requirement from Ticketmaster mandating vaccines/testing.

  In short, we are not forcing anyone to do anything. Just exploring the ability to enhance our existing digital ticket capabilities to offer solutions for event organisers that could include testing and vaccine information with 3rd party health providers. Just a tool in the box for those that may want to use.

  • There is absolutely no requirement from Ticketmaster mandating vaccines/testing for future events. Unfortunately, this has been widely reported and is incorrect. Ticketmaster does not have the power to set policies around safety/entry requirements, which would include vaccines and/or testing protocols. That would always be up to the discretion of the event organiser, based on their preferences and local health guidelines.

  • We are exploring a number of safety features for event organisers to utilise as they look to welcome fans back to events. This includes tools from Ticketmaster’s recently announced SmartEvent suite like social distanced seating, contactless entry and more (read more info on SmartEvent here).  Again, the event organiser will determine what, if any, of these measures are implemented at their individual event, not Ticketmaster.

  So, what is Ticketmaster doing when it comes to COVID vaccines and testing?

  We are trying to prepare for potential possibilities in the future. It has become more common for people to take a COVID test before activities like travelling and seeing loved ones. If this is something that event organisers or venues choose to ask fans to do in the future (either for their own preferences or due to local health requirements), we want to be prepared.

  One idea to keep the event entry process as simple and convenient as possible is to find a way for fans to link their digital ticket to their negative test results, vaccine status, health declaration or any other info that is determined to greenlight access. This would allow fans to enter an event with one scan of their ticket, rather than entering and then having to wait in another line to show their health verification.

  While we have no control whether or not these factors will come into play in the future, if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s to prep for as many scenarios as possible. 

  A few important things to note:

  • This is still just a potential idea and is not being implemented at this time.

  • Like all safety/entry protocols, it would be up to the discretion of the event organiser to determine if they would like to ask attendees to provide a health verification.

  • If it were to be made possible, all health information would legally have to be stored with a 3rd party health care provider with HIPAA-compliance, not with Ticketmaster.

  We hope this provides some clarity, and look forward to gathering and celebrating at events together again.
