Using Events4kids on behalf of an entity
By using our Services on behalf of an entity (such as on behalf of your employer or a club), you agree to these Terms on behalf of that entity and its Affiliates and you represent that you have the authority to do so. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that entity as well as yourself.
Who are we?
Events4kids is an events management and community platform. We offer a platform dedicated to home-ed events and a community for our members to stay connected. Through our services and products Event Leaders and Organisers can advertise events that offer tickets for sale to parents or guardians of home-educated attendees.
Events4Kids is not the creator, organiser, or owner of the events listed nor are we the seller of tickets, registrations or any merchandise on the Services. Instead, we provide our Services, which allow Event Leaders and Organisers to manage ticketing and registrations and promote their events.
If the Event Leader is hosting an event with paid tickets, the Event Leader will receive payments via their own Stripe (Payment Provider) account. Events4Kids does not add a booking fee. Events4Kids does not process the transaction.
Who are the Event Leaders?
The Event Leaders create and list the event, set the pricing and manage any event-relevant communications. They do so with sole responsibility for ensuring that their event and event listing is accurate and comply with any applicable laws, rules, and regulations and that what is delivered is as described.
Event Leaders will be listed in the Organisers section of the event listing.
Who are the Organisers?
Event Leaders may be supported by Event Organisers. All events will clearly state in the Organisers section the Event Leader plus, where applicable, the Organisers. If there is only one name listed that will be the name of the Event Leader.
Some events are small and only require the Event Leader to manage them. Some are large and therefore require several people to support them and ensure that the event is a success.
Creating an account on Events4kids
You can only purchase event tickets from the Website if you are eligible to enter into a contract and are at least 18 years old. Therefore parents or guardians wishing to purchase tickets for an attendee must have an account, either as a Free subscriber, Community Membership or as an Event Leader.
When creating an account you must enter accurate and truthful information and update it if it changes. We will remove anyone who is proven to have provided inaccurate information. We will not knowingly collect a child’s data directly from anyone under 18 years of age. If you believe someone under 18 has created an account you should inform us via admin@events4kids.co.uk immediately so that it is deleted.
Basis of Sale
- The listing of an event on our Events4Kids does not constitute a contractual offer to sell the tickets. When an Order has been submitted on Events4Kids, we can reject it for any reason, although we will try to tell you the reason without delay.
- The Order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting the Order. It is your responsibility to check that you have used the ordering process correctly.
- By opting to purchase a Community Member Membership you automatically agree to our Terms & Conditions. If you have problems with any of the clauses listed below or do not agree with the risk allocations mentioned here, please do not create a membership.
- Please note that Events4kids reserves the right to make changes, revisions, and amendments, or add/remove sections from this set of terms and conditions – without any prior notifications to you. Such changes will be duly reflected here.
- These changes will relate to the date of purchase of any event tickets.
- The price of the event ticket is listed clearly in the event description. This figure is non-negotiable and you agree not to contact the Event Leader to request a discount.
- The ticket you purchase represents a revocable license for the attendee to access the event on the date specified on the ticket only. The license includes the revocable right to attend the event. This license can be revoked at any time by the ‘Event Leader’, ‘Organiser’ or ‘Events4kids’ at its sole discretion, without any prior notifications or compensation options. If the license is revoked, the attendee will not be granted entry to the venue.
- Once purchased, tickets are delivered via email and a copy is available within your account. The Purchaser has to assume full responsibility for the event ticket, once received. Event4kids has no liabilities – financial, legal, or otherwise – in case the delivered tickets are printed and subsequently stolen, lost, damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable in any other way.
- If you obtain your ticket(s) from any other unauthorised source, you take on the risk of those tickets turning out to be counterfeit or reported to be stolen. The Event Leader and Organiser have the right to dishonour such stolen/counterfeit tickets and declare them void.
- The event tickets are delivered to you by email and are not meant to be used for illegal reselling, copying, reproducing, or misrepresenting in any form. You cannot use the ticket(s) for any promotional/advertising purposes either (including sweepstakes and competitions) without our prior approval. Any proven record of such activities will result in immediate seizure and cancellation of your ticket(s).
- Please note that event tickets cannot be redeemed against cash, credits, or any other benefits.
- Events4kids has the right to investigate if there has been any violation of the ticketing terms and conditions. In case of any conflicts, the decision of Events4kids will be deemed final (i.e. will remain the final arbiter in cases of disputes).

Purchaser & Attendee Specific Conditions
By purchasing the event tickets, you automatically confirm that the attendee(s) meet any criteria stated in the Event Listing. If an Attendee does not meet the criteria listed for the event the responsibility falls to the Purchaser. The attendee will no longer be covered by the insurance provided by the Venue or Event Lead and no claims can be made against them or Events4kids in any respect. No refunds, full or partial, will be issued either.
By purchasing an event ticket and presenting the same at the venue, you give your consent to Events4kids, the Event Leader, the Organiser and the Venue to collect certain information about yourself (name, picture, date of birth, gender, address, etc.) for verification and storage.

Events4kids, Event Leaders and Organisers do not take any responsibility for personal/financial damages caused to you at the venue, or for any items lost/stolen/misplaced at the venue. Financial reimbursement claims on these counts will not be entertained.
Events4kids, Event Leaders and Organisers follow a common ‘zero-tolerance policy’ towards unauthorised drug usage, alcohol consumption AND any type of behaviour/actions that can be interpreted as lewd or obscene, cause harm or upset to any other attendee or venue personnel. If you or your attendee are found in possession of prohibited items and/or if you indulge in any objectionable action, your participation in the event will be terminated immediately. Your event ticket(s) will become void from that point on and no refunds will be issued.
Please note that you purchase tickets of your own free will. As such, you do not have the right to initiate a chargeback claim or dispute on the provider of the credit card/debit card that had been used for the transaction. Further refund/return/cancellation requests will not be entertained either.
Disputes
We want everyone to be able to access and enjoy our events. We try to avoid any dispute, so we deal with complaints in the following way: If a dispute occurs following the purchase of a ticket you should contact the Event Leader in the first instance to find a solution.
