POLICIES REGARDING EVENT TICKETS

Our Cancellation/Refund policy as well as our Substitution/Transfer Policy apply to purchases of event tickets and are clearly listed during the ticket purchase process (hosted on a third-party site for processing of your credit card information). We list it here as well.

Cancellation/Refund Policy – Requests for full cancellation must be received by Blueprint Events in writing PRIOR TO the cancellation “Cutoff Date.” The cutoff date is 45 days prior to the start of the event. Cancellation requests will be subject to a $75 processing fee per ticket. Send refund requests to blueprint@connectiv.com. Refunds will not be granted after the Cutoff Date, but the registration may be transferred to a future event. Refunds/Credits will NOT be given to no-shows. All cancellation refunds will be processed within 4 weeks of the completion of the event.

 

Substitution/Transfer Policy – Registrations may be transferred from one party to another party prior to the week before the event date. Within 72 hours of the event date attendee substitutions cannot be guaranteed. All substitution requests will be processed within 2 business days. Substitutions between ticket types are not allowed, e.g., transferring a speaker pass to another person.

 

Registrations may also be transferred to the next calendar year’s show, e.g., if a ticket was purchased to Blueprint Vegas 2022, the ticket may be transferred to Blueprint Vegas 2023 at no charge. Transfers to the subsequent show year can happen up until the start of the show for which the ticket was purchased.

 

Registrations can be transferred forward a maximum of two times, e.g., a registration for Blueprint Vegas 2022 can be transferred to Blueprint Vegas 2023 and then again to Blueprint Vegas 2024. Transferred tickets must be used, either by the primary ticket holder or transferred to another ticket holder for use by the second show year; otherwise, the ticket will be deemed void.

All transfer requests should be sent to blueprint@connectiv.com.

Refunds on Transferred Tickets – Refunds are only available on tickets purchased for that particular event and for requests made prior to the cutoff date. If a ticket is transferred to the subsequent show year, refunds are not provided. Transferred tickets can, however, be transferred to another individual or forward an additional year for a maximum of two show cycles.
