Playground Weekender ticket vendor Green Tix, as promised this morning in an interview with Mess + Noise has released a statement regarding Playground Weekender Festival ticket refunds following the event’s recent cancellation due to flood risks. The three day festival was cancelled less than 36 hours prior to the gates opening, on advice from the State Emergency Services and NSW Police in relation to the flood risks presented by the dangerous levels of the Warragamba Dam.

While the promoters of Playground Weekender immediately commenced organising alternative events to the originally planned extravaganza there has been a shadow of doubt over refund proceedings, not least the speculation regarding insolvency and debt issues. The official word from GreenTix however is as follows:

To patrons who chose the Credit Card payment option, Green Tix will process refunds today, Friday March 9, 2012.

For any other refund enquiries regarding the event, patrons are advised to contact Playground Festivals direct via email [email protected]
