Terms and Conditions
1. Booking & Deposit

The remaining balance is due in full no later than one Week before your event, or in cash on arrival prior to setup. Late or missed payments may result in cancellation of the booking. If we arrive on-site and the event is cancelled, postponed, or the site is unsuitable, full payment will still apply.
