Attendee Questions
Do I need a ticket to attend?
Yes, all Mellow Art events require registration — whether the event is free or ticketed. Once registered, please arrive and line up at the time shown on your ticket, as this is when entry.
Ticket prices vary by event, so be sure to check the specific event page for details. Children under 12 enter free.
Can I enter at a different time to what's on my ticket?
We ask that you arrive at your allowcated time where possible. If you arrive later, you'll be treated as a walk-in and will need to wait until all registered ticket holders for that slot have entered. Wait times will vary, and unfortunately we can't make exceptions as our markets do get busy.
I couldn't get a ticket - can I walk in?
Walk-ins are welcome depending on each event's capacity - we'll always keep you updated on the situation via our social media. Please do expect a small wait time, as registered ticket holders are always prioritised for entry.
Can I re-enter the market if I leave?
If you'd like to come back in, we recommend joining the walk-in queue at the last entry time slot. Re-entry is only permitted after all ticket holders have entered.
Can I get a refund?
Refund requests are available up to 7 days prior to the event. Full details canbe found on the ticketing platform where you purchased your ticket.
What payment methods do stallholders accept?
Most stallholders accept card payments, though some international vendors may require cash only. We recommend checking with the stallholder beforehand so you're prepared.
I have accessibility needs - can you accommodate me?
Absolutely. We do our best to ensure Mellow Art events are accessible and welcoming for everyone. However, due to certain venue restrictions, some areas may not be fully accessible — we'll always make this clear ahead of the event. We can also arrange reduced wait times for entry; simply speak to a staff member on arrival. Quiet rest spaces are also available throughout the venue.
Will I be photographed or filmed at the event?
Our media team is present at all Mellow Art events, and signage will be displayed throughout the venue to notify visitors. If you'd prefer not to be photographed or filmed, please let a member of our team know and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
Is food allowed inside the venue?
This depends on the venue — please check our social media for the most up-to-date information. If food is permitted, please be mindful of other visitors, keep the area tidy, and take your rubbish with you.
I need help on the day - who do I speak to?
Look out for staff waring a "Need Help" sticker, or head to our Info Desk - we're always happy to assist!
