Match Tickets

1. Terms & Conditions This ticket use policy (Ticket Use Policy) governs the use of tickets purchased for Football Matches held at the Madejski Stadium from the Ticket Office. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU PURCHASE ANY TICKETS FROM THE TICKET OFFICE For the purpose of clarity a ticket is any medium used to gain access to the stadium. This includes stadium access/smartcards which may or may not be branded as a Season Ticket or Member Card.


2. Ticket holders and/or purchasers of tickets will be responsible for compliance and observance with this Ticket Use Terms and Conditions and with any ground regulations governing persons entering, present at or leaving the Madejski Stadium (the Stadium located at Bennett Road, Reading, Berkshire RG2 0FL) as may be specified by Reading Football Club (Reading FC, RFC or the Club) from time to time. Misconduct of the ticket holder or nominee, failing to adhere to this Ticket Use Policy or acting in a manner which the Club considers is detrimental to its interests or is likely in the reasonable opinion of the Club to bring Football or the Club into disrepute shall permit the Club to confiscate or forfeit (in each case without compensation) the ticket, to prevent access to the Stadium for the fixture in question and/or to ban the ticket holder from attending future matches or other events at the Stadium for such time as the Club deems appropriate. The club will seek where relevant to prosecute to the full extent of the law where applicable as well as informing other bodies either Football Regulatory or Law enforcement of any breaches of this nature.


3. All Football match tickets are issued subject to (i) these terms and conditions (as the same may be amended, varied or changed from time to time), (ii) the rules and regulations from time to time of FIFA, UEFA, The Football Association, The FA Premier League and The Football League as the case may be having regard to the competition in respect of which tickets are offered for sale, (iii) any ground regulations governing persons entering, present at or leaving the Stadium (as such regulations may be specified and amended, varied or changed by Reading FC from time to time), and (iv) such additional rules and regulations as Reading FC may adopt form time to time, all of which are hereby incorporated into the terms and conditions of the issuance of a ticket and called collectively the Ticket Use Terms and Conditions.


4. Reading FC will only give refunds on purchased tickets if the tickets are returned to the Reading FC Ticket Office over 24 hours before the kick off of the match the ticket is valid for.


5. Reading FC reserve the right to price tickets and change the price of tickets for any match however they deem appropriate including after a sale has been made without refund.


6. Concessions may be offered on ticket pricing for Senior Citizens, Junior and Disabled supporters. At the Clubs discretion you may be asked to provide proof of your concessionary status. For the avoidance of doubt Senior Citizen prices are valid for anybody 65 and over, and junior prices for anybody aged 21 and under as at 1st August (where August is the 1st month of the season). Disabled supporters are defined within the Clubs Disabled Ticketing Policy which can be found here (http://www.readingfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Disabled/0,,10306,00.html) or via the Customer Service Department at the Stadium. The club reserves the right to alter these price age bands without notice. Anybody found to be using concession ticket unjustly to gain entry to a Reading FC match will be liable to denied entry or ejection. No refund will be given.


7. If the Football match for which a ticket relates to is postponed or abandoned for any reason the terms of the Clubs Customer Charter will apply. If the match is abandoned before kick off, the ticket shall remain valid for the rearranged match. Any person who does not wish to attend the rearranged Football match shall be entitled to a refund and in the case of a postponement before kick off this will be the full face value of the ticket for the relevant match. Refunds will only be considered until 24 hours prior to the match and will only be provided once the relevant ticket is returned to the Ticket Office. In the case of an abandonment of the Football match once the match has commenced half price admission to the re-arranged game will be offered. In no circumstances will Reading FC be liable to pay any other sums to any persons in connection with a postponed or abandoned Football match.


8. If for any reason the date and/or time of a Football match is altered after a ticket has been purchased it is the responsibility of the customer to ascertain the correct date and time of the fixture. Reading FC will endeavour to make this information available as soon as any changes have been made. Reading FC is under no obligation to give any form of recompense to anybody who misses a Football match due to a date and/or time change.


9. In the event of a ticket being lost, damaged or misplaced Reading FC is under no obligation to provide a duplicate ticket.


10. The purchase of a ticket constitutes an acceptance by the purchaser of, and an undertaking to be bound by and observe, the Ticket Purchase Policy and Ticket Use Terms and Conditions of Reading FC.


11. The resale of any tickets at more than face value is strictly prohibited. When purchasing the ticket, you will inform the new holder that they are subject to this policy. A ticket shall become void and will not allow entry to the stadium or have any right to a refund where Reading FC believe it has been sold to another person at higher price, sold on the Internet (through unauthorised ticket brokers, auction sites or otherwise) or any other medium whether now or hereafter developed or it has been used as a prize in a lottery, competition or for any other promotional or advertising purpose unless expressly authorised by Reading FC in writing. The club will seek where relevant to prosecute to the full extent of the law where applicable as well as informing other bodies either Football Regulatory or Law enforcement of any breaches of this section.


12. Entrance to the stadium is only permitted upon presentation of a valid ticket, which should be retained until the Football match in question has been played to a conclusion. In addition, upon request, proof of identity may be required.


13. The ticket gives access only to the block, row and seat indicated on the ticket and not to any other seat within the stadium, however Reading FC reserves the right to re-allocate the ticket holder to any other seats in the stadium at any time.


14. No person (other than the holder of a valid licence granted by Reading FC or by a Football authority with London Irish's consent) may bring into, or use within, the stadium any equipment which is capable of recording or transmitting any audio, visual or audio-visual material or any information or data in relation to a match or the stadium, other than mobile phones or like devices for personal non commercial use.


15. The ticket remains the property of Reading FC at all times.


16. Reading FC excludes to the maximum extent permitted by the law any liability for loss, injury or damage to persons/property in or around the stadium (whether or not indirect or consequential). Nothing in the Ticket Purchase and Use Terms and Conditions shall exclude or restrict Reading FC's liability for its own negligence.


17. Reading FC Reserves the right to refuse any person the right to buy a ticket, entry to the stadium and to eject from the stadium any person:


• who fails to comply with the Ticket Purchase and Use Terms and Conditions;
• who does not produce a valid ticket on request;
• who holds a ticket in breach of any of the paragraphs above;
• whose presence within the stadium may be a source of danger, nuisance, annoyance or otherwise that may give rise to concerns in relation to the safety and security arrangements for the Football match concerned. This includes excessive noise, smoking, use of foul and abusive language and the throwing of any object which might injure or cause damage to people or property;
• Reading FC will not tolerate any forms of bigotry, racism or inappropriate behaviour arising from any form of prejudice. Anyone found in breach of this condition could receive a warning, have their ticket confiscated without compensation, receive an indefinite life ban from the stadium and in some cases arrest;
