Question 4

If I decide to cancel or not come to an event, can I get a refund or credit?

No, all packages are non-refundable and no credits can be issued. Due to the high weekly demand and limited capacity of tickets at our events many people miss out and we cannot accommodate refunds or transfers due to change of mind.

Any tattoos that are offensive or associated with gangs are strictly prohibited.

Question 8

What happens when it rains? Is The Island undercover?

In case of wet weather, The Island is never closed or cancelled – we have a fully extendable roof that covers the entire venue, and also side covers to protect from the wind. Only in the rare event of dangerous conditions will we cancel / postpone an event.

Question 9

It's my friends birthday, can I bring a cake?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately we dont allow cakes to be brought on board, as we don't have a full kitchen to take care of this. 
The bar team should be able to assist in a sparkler in a cocktail or something along the lines if you like.
