I have requested to collect my tickets through Lancashire Tickets, where can I collect them from and at what time?
If you ordered tickets from lancashiretickets.com for an event being held at 53 Degrees, you can collect them from the Uclan Students Union reception between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday.

Alternatively, you can pick up your tickets (with proof of ID and your reference number) on the door of the event when doors open. If you ordered your tickets for an event not held at 53 Degrees, your name and order number will be sent on to the venue to collect from their on-site box office.
I ordered a ticket through another ticket outlet, and requested for it to be posted out but I have not received it, what should I do?
You'll need to contact the relevant store or box office - because of data protection concerns we do not hold the full customer lists for other box offices.
I have arranged to collect tickets bought through another outlet for 53 Degrees other than lancashiretickets.com - when and where will I be able to pick them up?
You will be able pick up your tickets (with proof of ID and your reference number) on the door of the event when doors open. We at Lancashire Tickets cannot take responsibility for ticket collections that we have not been informed about by other box offices.
Can a third party collect my tickets from the box office?
No. The cardholder needs to collect and produce the credit card used to make payment and sign a receipt. This is part of the credit card merchant agreement and is in place to protect both Lancashire Tickets and the cardholder from potential credit card fraud.
I've purchased tickets for me and my friends and have requested it to be a collection order, do my friends need to pick up the tickets at the same time as me?
Yes, all tickets are batched per order and need to be collected all together. This avoids tickets getting lost and orders being split. This applies when collecting on the door too.

Refunds and exchanges

How do I get a refund on a ticket for an event that has been cancelled?
If an event is cancelled and has not been rescheduled, you should receive a refund of the face value of the ticket onto the card on which the tickets were purchased automatically. If you have had any problems please contact us at info@lancashiretickets.com.

You may be asked to return your tickets. Where you are asked to return tickets, the refund will not be processed onto your card until we receive the tickets. We therefore recommend that all tickets that need to be returned are sent by secure post to:
