We’ve had a phenomenal amount of interest for this year’s Grad Ball already.
Please remember that as we announced yesterday, the ticket release date has been pushed back by one day as a response to your feedback, they will be available to buy from 9:30am on THURSDAY.
We have received some queries via email and through Facebook, the below information should provide answers to the most frequently asked questions.
?? FULL TABLE / GROUP PURCHASES ??
Due to demand for tickets, tables cannot be reserved or ‘held’. You can purchase a full table, however we will need payments to be made for all tickets at the time of purchase, along with the names & matriculation numbers of each member of your group (and the names of any plus one).
To guarantee that you are sitting next to your friends, it is strongly advised that you buy your tickets at the same time.
?? GUESTS / PLUS-ONES ??
RGU students are permitted to bring one guest only. You must buy a ticket for your guest and supply us with their name at the point of purchase.
?? BUYING MULTIPLE TICKETS ??
You can buy a ticket for your friend(s) if they are unable to get to Deeview Student Store, but you must provide us with their names and matriculation numbers when purchasing.
?? PAYMENT METHODS ??
Payments can be made by cash or by credit/debit card at the Deeview Student Store.
There will be two queuing systems in place on Thursday, one for cash payments and one for card payments. Please make sure that you are in the correct queue.
