Will the Victoria Theatre be closed due to Coronavirus?
In response to the Government’s recent statement advising the UK public to avoid unnecessary social contact, including by not attending theatres, Calderdale Council has taken the precaution of closing the Victoria Theatre with immediate effect until Monday 15th June 2020.
During this time the theatre will unfortunately be closed to the public and there will be no performances, public meetings or gatherings. The Box Office are also currently closed and we are doing what we can from home to keep our customers informed. Once we return to work we will administer the refunds so please bear with us in this unprecedented situation.
Our usual Social Media channels will also continue to operate as usual.
The Victoria Theatre continues to work with promoters and artistes to reschedule as many dates and performances as possible and we will continue to announce updates as soon as they become available.
Full refunds will be given for any performances which are cancelled or which have had to be rescheduled to dates on which ticket holders are not able to attend.
PLEASE NOTE: The £1.75 Theatre Support Fee that is automatically added to all tickets is non refundable. This fee is essential to supporting the theatre operations, particularly during these difficult times.
We will continue to be mindful and act upon government and theatre industry advice as it is becomes available with the health and wellbeing of our valued customers, staff and artistes being our first priority.
We also appreciate that the current situation may be frustrating for our customers and thank you for your patience at this challenging time.
What will happen if a performance is cancelled or postponed?
We will update our website (below) and social media channels to provide the most up to date advice for customers as and when we have confirmed the position with promoters and artistes.
If you have purchased tickets though a ticket agent (eg Ticketmaster, SEE tickets etc) or any other channel you will need to contact the agent directly to discuss your booking and their terms and conditions and refund policy will apply.
What if I no longer wish to attend a performance which is taking place?
Currently, if a performance goes ahead the Theatre’s standard terms and conditions will still apply and tickets are unfortunately non-refundable. Ticketholders who have purchased TicketPlan Insurance may be eligible for a refund and should check their circumstances against the policy.
How will I know if the situation changes?
We will be updating these FAQs, our website and social media channels as necessary. Please continue to check them.
