  1. An order to purchase Artisphere tickets is an offer to purchase which Artisphere may accept or reject in their sole discretion. In placing an order, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and that you agree to these Terms and Conditions, the “Agreement”.
  2. Artisphere tickets are owned by Artisphere. An Artisphere ticket is a revocable license issued by Artisphere to the individual or corporate entity name that appears on the account of record. Breach of any of the terms herein and/or on the reverse side of the ticket shall entitle Artisphere to all available legal remedies. Artisphere reserve the right to revoke the license granted, in its discretion, by refunding the purchase price for any unused tickets.
  3. If you submit an order, you warrant that you have the authority to authorize charges to the credit card or other method of payment, as applicable. You understand and agree that Artisphere is not liable, in any way, for erroneous bill statements or incorrect charges and that should an error occur in billing or debiting, Artisphere only responsibility is to correct such error when and if Artisphere receive written notice of such error. All sales and debits are non-refundable once the order is accepted by Artisphere. You understand that, at Artisphere sole discretion, your access to Artisphere may be restricted or revoked if any authorized charge is refused or unable to be processed for any other reason.

You understand that any payment authorization remains in force and effect until Artisphere have received written notification of its termination in such time and manner as to allow Artisphere a reasonable opportunity to act on it.
