Some events have a strict lockout policy, which means that no one will be admitted once the event has started.

Lockouts are advertised on the relevant website event pages, during online ticket purchases and on your ticket. No refunds will be provided for latecomers to strict lockout events.

If you leave a ticketed event that advertises 'no passouts', you will not be allowed to re-enter the venue, even if you have a ticket.

A venue lockout occurs when a venue stops allowing ticket holders to enter after a certain time, even though the event inside is still running. People already inside can stay until the event ends, but any ticket holders who have not yet entered will not be able to do so once lockout begins.

Yes, you can join the waitlist for sold-out events on the Tickets page. If a ticket becomes available and you are on the waitlist, you may receive an email offering the opportunity to purchase a ticket. We encourage you to purchase waitlist tickets promptly, as the link to claim an available ticket will not last forever.

Children aged two years and under do not require a ticket to most events on the condition they do not occupy a seat and they are carried by, or sit on the lap of, a parent or guardian.

There are targeted youth and kids activities across The Unconformity festival program, such as The Unconformity Kids Trail, Crib Road, Elemental Memories, Kani mina milaythina-nanya? and The Commonwealth of New Bayswater. The broader festival program has been designed to engage a diverse range of audiences. Unless events are marked with an age restriction, we encourage audience members of all ages to explore and discover them.
