COVID-19 Information

Customers will be contacted via email*, and depending on how short notice the cancellation is, a text may be sent, plus updates will be posted across our social media channels. If you are unsure you can:

• Log in to your online booking account and check your orders; any rescheduled performances will show here with new dates and tickets**
• Check the What’s On section for your show – all rescheduled performances are listed with their new dates

*You can log on to your online account at any time to check your email and mailing preferences, and update if needed to ensure you receive the latest email communications. We advise you to check your junk/spam/work/alternative emails. Should you need to contact us, please call Box Office on 0113 243 0808 or email boxoffice@leedsheritagetheatres.com but be aware that a response could take up to 10 working days. Our email and social media channels are not monitored after 6pm midweek or over the weekend.

**Please note, since our move to a new booking system on 12 April 2022, customers who booked tickets prior to this date, and didn’t download/print them at the time, will no longer be able to do so – please don’t worry. You can either collect them from Box Office, ask us to resend them, or more simply, you can show your confirmation on entry by logging into your account (tickets must be valid for the correct date).

Don’t worry, if the credit/debit card that you made your original purchase has expired, please call Box Office on 0113 243 0808 or email boxoffice@leedsheritagetheatres.com with the best telephone number our team can contact you on and we will give you a call.

We are processing refunds as quickly as possible but this process is taking much longer due to them being processed by BACS whilst we move to a new payment provider. Please accept our apologies; we appreciate your patience in this matter

Please note, It can take up to 10 working days for your bank to process a refund

Should you need to get in touch, you can call 0113 243 0808, Mon-Sat, 10am-8pm, or email boxoffice@leedsheritagetheatres.com. Please note a response can take up to 10 working days

We reserve the right to keep booking fees as stated in our Ts&Cs; currently they are being used to support the huge administration costs incurred by the pandemic, including refunding and rescheduling shows, and to also help maintain our three heritage buildings

Leeds Heritage Theatres offers the option to add refund protection to your bookings at Leeds Grand Theatre and City Varieties Music Hall

Booking Protect T&Cs

For your own piece of mind, Leeds Heritage Theatres strongly suggests you buy tickets direct from our venues (through our website or Box Office), but if purchasing from an agent, we highly recommend that they are reputable and do not sell tickets at inflated prices. Please note, your terms and conditions regarding refunds or exchanges are with the agent and not Leeds Heritage Theatres. We’re sorry, but we are unable to amend bookings made by agents

You can log on to your online account at any time to check your email and mailing preferences, and update if needed to ensure you receive the latest email communications. We also advise you to check your junk/spam/work/alternative emails

Should you need to contact us, please email boxoffice@leedsheritagetheatres.com but be aware that a response could take up to 10 working days. Our email and social media channels are not monitored after 6pm midweek or over the weekend
