FAQs / Help

What happens when I buy a ticket online?

On completion of your order, you will be emailed an admission ticket containing a booking reference and QR code.  You should present this ticket on arrival at the gallery.  If you don't have a printer you can present the ticket on a smartphone or simply make a note of the booking reference number and quote it on entry. You may be asked for a form of identification.

How do I use my online booking ticket?

After you have booked online, you will be emailed an admission ticket that will include a unique booking reference and QR code that also contains this number.  You may take a note of this number and bring it with you when you visit the gallery in place of a ticket, although we recommend printing out the email and QR code it contains as it is likely to speed up your access.

Do I need to print my ticket?

No; the QR code on your phone should work well.

Do you issue refunds?

Tickets are non-refundable except in limited circumstances detailed below. If you need to change the date of your visit then, if you created an account when you booked online, you can log in here prior to your booked date and make this change yourself.   Please contact info@stanleyspencer.org.uk with your reference if you have a problem.

 

There are no circumstances where the gallery is liable for visitor's accommodation and travel costs and the gallery will not reimburse these costs should an event be cancelled, or the gallery needs to close due to unforeseen circumstances beyond its control.  This includes, but is not limited to, Government restrictions or adverse weather. In these circumstances, we will issue a complimentary ticket that can be used for entry to the gallery in the future.

 

Any refund requests not covered by the above will be considered by a Trustee and a decision made at the time.

Can I purchase a ticket on the day at the gallery?

Yes, although at certain times and on certain days capacity may be limited.  Pre-booking will speed up your entry into the gallery.
