What is the cancellation policy?  What do I do if my rooftop event is cancelled?

• We will try and make cancellation decisions by Noon on the day of the scheduled event. We will attempt to hold the rooftop whenever possible but will cancel if needed. (Note that cancellation in these terms generally will only be for the Rooftop event and will have no impact on the Headliner Artist playing Warner Theatre.)
• Purchasers of the Rooftop events will be notified via email regarding the status of the event when a cancellation is announced. If no such announcement has been received, the event is currently “on”.  There are times where we could have to cancel closer to the scheduled event or event may be forced to cancel after an event begins.
• If your Rooftop event is cancelled before the start of the scheduled rooftop event, your charges will be refunded back to the original purchaser of the rooftop pass.
• If you have any questions regarding the cancellation policy or you are requesting information on a cancelled event you had tickets to, please write us at warnertheatreboxoffice@livenation.com.
