Roehampton, London, SW15 5JQ, and whose VAT number is GB115105662 (the “LTA”). The LTA will be staging the Davis Cup Finals Manchester - 2024, held at AO Arena Manchester (the “Event”, and with the applicable venue for the Event being a “Venue”).

 1. Understanding these terms 

1.1 These terms and conditions ("Terms and Conditions") set out the terms on which you may purchase and use the tickets to the Event selected during the Order (as defined in Clause 1 below) process and detailed on such tickets (each such ticket being a “Ticket”). Tickets may only be purchased via the Ticketmaster purchasing platform (“Ticketing Platform”, website available here (“Website”)), as further detailed in Clause 2. 

1.2 When certain words and phrases are used in these Terms and Conditions, they have specific meanings (these are known as "defined terms"). You can identify these defined terms because they start with capital letters (even if they are not at the start of a sentence). Where a defined term is used, it has the meaning given to it in the section of these Terms and Conditions where it was defined (you can find these meanings by looking at the sentence where the defined term is included in brackets and speech marks). 1.3 In these Terms and Conditions, when we refer to "we", "us" or "our", we mean the LTA; and when we refer to "you" or "your" we mean either:

1.3.1 consumers, being individuals acting for purposes that are wholly or mainly outside of their trade, business, craft or profession: or

1.3.2 "Professional Users", being individuals or entities seeking to purchase and/or use a Ticket for purposes related to their trade, business, craft, or profession (and any  individual purchasing a Ticket on behalf of a Professional User warrants to the LTA that it has the power and authority to bind the Professional User on whose behalf it is purchasing such Ticket).

1.4 Please note, however, that certain functions made available on the Ticketing Platform may be governed by additional terms and conditions, including (for example) the terms of use of the Website.

1.5 In addition to Clause 4 above, please note that we only use your personal information in accordance with our privacy and cookies policy (available here) and that the Website uses cookies, the use of which is governed by our privacy and cookies policy.

2. Ordering Tickets 

2.1 To place an order for Tickets via the Ticketing Platform (an "Order"), you must have a registered account on the Ticketing Platform (a “TP Account”) and be at least 18 years old
or, if you are below 18 years of age, have the permission of your parent or legal guardian. You must keep the login details for your TP Account secure and confidential. Please note
that your eligibility to use a Ticket that you have purchased is as set out in Clause 4.

2.2 If you are a consumer, please note that any Tickets you purchase are intended for domestic, private and non-commercial use and by making a Ticket purchase through the
Ticketing Platform and accepting these Terms and Conditions, you represent to us that you are acting as a consumer and not for purposes relating to your trade, business, craft or
profession.

2.3 Follow the process set out on the Ticketing Platform in order to submit an Order. You should check all of the information that you enter and correct any errors before submitting
your Order, as once your Order is submitted, we will begin processing it immediately. Please note wheelchair users or other Ticket holders who require ambulant disabled
seating must contact the Venue, customer support, on 0161 950 5229 to place an order for Tickets by phone and this will constitute an Order in this case. If a person requiring wheelchair or ambulant disabled seating attempts to enter the Event using any Ticket other than a wheelchair or ambulant disabled seating Ticket, they may be refused access to the seat detailed on their Ticket.

2.4 Your Order constitutes an offer to us. We will confirm our acceptance of your Order by sending you an email confirming the information you included in your Order (the "Confirmation Email"). These Terms and Conditions and the Order will become legally binding on you and us when we send you the Confirmation Email and each Order shall incorporate these Terms and Conditions and shall be a new and separate contract between you and us (“Contract”).

2.5 Following the sending of the Ticket Confirmation Email to you by us, your Tickets will be made available within the Ticketmaster application (the “App”), meaning that you must download the App in order to access and use any Ticket(s) that you purchase. If our supply of the Tickets is delayed by an event outside our control, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event outside our control, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the Contract and receive a refund for any Tickets you have paid for but not received.

2.6 Please note that purchase of pre-general sale Tickets to the Event is limited to those individuals who the LTA grants such rights to including certain LTA Advantage Members and members of national associations competing at the Event.

3. Payment 

3.1 The prices for the Tickets are set out on the Ticketing Platform, as the LTA may amend from time to time, and are inclusive of VAT.

3.2 t is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Tickets may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your Order so that, where a Ticket's correct price at the time of your Order is less than our stated price at that time, we will charge the lower amount. If the Ticket's correct price at the time of your Order is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your Order. If we accept and process your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the Contract and refund you any sums you have paid.

3.3 If your payment is not authorised, your Order will not be fulfilled. 

4. Eligibility to use Tickets 

4.1 You may only purchase Tickets in your own name and must provide the names of any other natural person who will make use of any Ticket (each a “Guest”) via the App, either
by providing their details directly in the App or by sending the Ticket to such Guest via the App.

4.2 If you purchase a single Ticket, you must be over 16 years of age (on the Event date to which such Ticket relates) in order to use such Ticket.

4.3 If you purchase more than one Ticket, either you or a Guest using another Ticket that you have purchased must be over 16 years of age (on the Event date to which such Ticket relates) in order for any person under 16 years of age to use any such Ticket.

4.4 Babes in arms and children aged under five years of age are not permitted in any grandstand seating. Children aged five years or over are allowed into grandstand seating provided that they have a Ticket.

4.5 Any Ticket that is advertised as a Child Ticket may only be used for a child aged five to 16 years and may not be used by anyone aged over 16 years of age (on the Event date to which such Ticket relates).

5. Restrictions on transfer of Tickets 

5.1 We issue the Tickets to you for your and your Guest’s sole use. You shall not, and shall procure that each of your Guests shall not, resell, assign or (save as set out in this Clause 5) transfer their Ticket(s) (or the benefit of it or them) to any other person without our prior written consent. References in these Terms and Conditions to reselling Tickets includes offering to sell a Ticket, exposing a Ticket for sale, making a Ticket available for sale by another person and/or advertising that a Ticket is available for purchase. For the  avoidance of doubt (and by way of example only), a Ticket may not be offered as a prize in any promotion or competition or transferred, lent or sold to any third party as part of a hospitality or travel package, given to a third party who agrees to buy another good or service or used for any other commercial purpose save as expressly authorised by us.

5.2 Any Ticket you purchase may be transferred following the original purchase of such Ticket by you, provided in the case of each transfer that:

5.2.1 the Guest is known to you personally; 

5.2.2 it is for such Guest’s personal use only; 

5.2.3 the Guest would be entitled (under these Terms and Conditions) to purchase such Ticket and/or attend such Event; 

5.2.4 the sale or transfer takes place in consideration of no payment or benefit which is in excess of the face value of that Ticket; 

5.2.5 the sale or transfer does not take place during the course of any business or for the purpose of facilitating any third party's business (save that (if you are a Professional User) it may be used as part of your own business hospitality); and

5.2.6 all Ticket transfers must be conducted via the App.

5.3 All Tickets shall remain the property of the LTA at all times and must be produced together with evidence of your (or your Guest's, as applicable) identity if required to do so by any official, steward or employee of the LTA or any police officer. We reserve the right to cancel a Ticket at any time if we reasonably suspect that you and/or any Guest has breached these Terms and Conditions. We also reserve the right to cancel any Ticket that is transferred in breach of this Clause 5.

5.3.1 A resale or transfer of a Ticket by you to any Guest must be made in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and the conditions of entry published by the LTA for the Event (the current version of which are available here and the conditions of entry published by the Venue (the current version of which are available here), “Conditions of Entry”) which will (save for any rights to transfer under this Clause 5 or any rights or obligations specific to you rather than a Guest) apply to and bind that Guest as if they were the original purchaser of the Ticket. You must inform the Guest of this and we shall hold you responsible if you fail to so notify each Guest and/or any Guest fails to comply with these Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Conditions of Entry. You must provide the name and address of each Guest(s) when asked to do so by any official, steward or employee of the LTA or any police officer.

5.4 The unauthorised sale or disposal of a Ticket is illegal under the terms of section 2 of the Fraud Act 2006. We will inform the police when we become aware that a Ticket has been sold or disposed of illegally and will press for charges to be brought against those breaking the law. If you or any Guest is convicted of a ticket touting offence, or we reasonably suspect that you or any Guest has committed such an offence, we may notice other tennis regulatory bodies, event holders and/or the relevant law enforcement authorities. The information that we share may include the relevant individual's personal data, including name and contact details and information about the offence and about Ticket purchases (including payment  details). We will use this to identify and prevent ticket touting offences.

Matches may be moved from one court to another at our sole discretion.

7.3 You acknowledge that the LTA cannot guarantee the length of play, the number of matches, the identity of the players or the stage of the tournament played on the day of the Event to which your or any Guest’s Ticket(s) relates.

Duplicate Tickets will only be issued to the cardholder on production of the card used to pay for the tickets and photo identification. Any duplicate Tickets automatically invalidate the original ticket.

9.2.1 in no event shall the LTA be liable to you for any loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of contracts, failure to realise anticipated savings or for any indirect or consequential loss, whether arising from negligence, breach of contract or otherwise; and

9.2.2 the LTA’s total aggregate liability to you in respect of any loss or damage suffered and arising out of or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or any Contract,

Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is an obvious consequence of the LTA’s breach or if it was contemplated you and the LTA at the time that these Terms and Conditions became binding on both the LTA and you;

9.3.3 nothing in these Terms and Conditions affects your statutory rights. Advice about your statutory rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office; and

11. Changes to these Terms and Conditions

We may make changes to these Terms and Conditions from time to time (if, for example, there is a change in the law that means we need to change these Terms and Conditions) but the Terms and Conditions applicable at the time of your Order will apply to that Order. Please check these Terms and Conditions regularly to ensure that you understand the Terms and conditions that apply at the time that you purchase Tickets.

12. Other important information

12.2 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms and Conditions, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

12.3 If you are a Professional User, these Terms and Conditions, together with your Confirmation Email, contain the entire agreement between you and the LTA in relation to their subject matter and supersedes any prior arrangement, understanding written or oral agreements between you and the LTA in relation to such subject matter.

Each of you and us hereby waives all rights and remedies which might otherwise be available to either of us in relation to such Pre-Contractual Statements.

13. Governing law and jurisdiction

13.1 These Terms and Conditions and each Contract, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, are governed by English law. 

13.2 Any proceedings arising out of or in respect of these Terms and Conditions or any Contract shall: 

13.2.1 if you are a Professional User, be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts; and

We shall bring any dispute which may arise under these Terms and Conditions or any Contract to the competent court of your country of habitual residence if this is in an EU Member State (but only where we direct the Ticketing Platform to (and/or we pursue our commercial or professional activities in relation to the Ticketing Platform in) such EU Member State), or otherwise the competent court of England.
