REFUND & EXCHANGE POLICY
Updated 08/01/2024

By placing your order, YOU UNDERSTAND AND YOU ARE AGREEING TO our general NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES POLICY.  ALL SALES ARE FINAL. THE RISE IS OPEN RAIN OR SHINE unless an unsafe condition is present as noted below.

REFUND EXCEPTIONS

Tickets for The RISE are not refundable, as noted above. However, we do provide refunds for the following two reasons only:

  1. DOUBLE ORDER REFUND: Sometimes visitors try to place an order for tickets and they aren't sure if the order went through so they try again and end up with two orders going through. In this case, we will refund one of the orders, as long as we're notified within 30 days. (If you try to place an order and you're not sure if it went through, check your email for the automated email we send immediately after every order is placed - maybe give it a minute or two to get to your inbox - if it's not in your inbox, check your spam / promotions folders too). You could also log in and look at your account to see if your order was successfully placed before trying again).

  2. PRICE GUARANTEE PARTIAL REFUND: If you've purchased tickets for a particular timeslot and find a promocode later which offers tickets to the same timeslot at a lower price than what you paid, we will refund you the difference between what you paid and what the new discount price is. To take advantage of this, contact us PRIOR to your event date/time and include your order number, the promocode you found, the new discount amount being offered, and we'll refund you the difference. Only valid if the timeslot still has tickets remaining at the time you contact us. This way, you can purchase your tickets with confindence knowing that we honor the bigger discounts if they are offered after you've made your purchase so you can experience The RISE at the lowest price for your timeslot.

TICKET EXCHANGE EXCEPTIONS

If you can't make the date and time you reserved for, you may be able to exchange your ticket(s) for a different open date and time using our Self-Swap Tool. Here are the rules and fees:

To exchange your tickets using the Self-Swap Tool, the following fees apply:

TO USE THE NEW SELF-SWAP TOOL TO EXCHANGE YOUR TICKETS, CLICK HERE TO LOGIN to your jackolanterns.com account and look for the Self Swap Tickets link under My Orders. *** The Self Swap tool was new in 2023 and updated for 2024. If you have any problems using it, please contact us and let us know so we can work out any potential bugs with the tool. ***

When NOT to use the SELF SWAP TOOL:

  1. MEETING WITH FRIENDS WHO HAVE A DIFFERENT TIMESLOT ON THE SAME NIGHT AS YOU: If you have tickets for a particular timeslot and your friends have tickets for a different timeslot ON THE SAME EVENING, you can all go in together, as long as you all go in at the LATER timeslot. (Sorry, this doesn't apply the other way - if two groups have tickets for different times on the same evening, they can only enter at the later time - not the earlier time - if they want to go in together).

  2. LATE ARRIVALS: If you think you'll be late for your timeslot, DON'T WORRY. If you arrive later in the same evening than the timeslot you purchased for, you'll get in when you arrive. Just make sure you get in the parking lot before the gate closes, which is 10 minutes after the last timeslot of the evening. You will not need to use the Self-Swap tool or contact us to change the time on your ticket - your earlier timed ticket will be honored later that same night. (Sorry, this doesn't apply the other way. If you arrive before your designated timeslot, you will not be permitted early entry).

  3. GATE CLOSED EXCHANGE: Entry to the parking lot closes 10 minutes after the last timeslot. If you arrive after the gate closes, you will be denied entry, because we are already following shut down procedures. We hope this doesn't happen to you but if it does, the guard at the booth will record your order number. All you have to do is contact us with your matching order number within 24 hours and we will provide you with a no-fee exchange into any future available timeslot (in the same season) of lesser or equal value.

TRANSFERABILITY

If you find out later that you are unable to use your tickets, your tickets are transferable so you may give your tickets to family or friends.

DANGEROUS WEATHER / UNSAFE CONDITIONS

The RISE is a rain or shine event. We do not close unless there is a dangerous condition present. Refunds are not provided if it's raining and the event is still on as scheduled. If dangerous weather is forecasted, The RISE will attempt to make a cancellation determination by 4pm and post a message about the cancellation on our website https://www.jackolanterns.com. If the event is postponed, The RISE reserves the right to reschedule the event to a different date and time. Affected ticket holders MUST arrive at their regularly scheduled time slot on the postponement date with their unused RISE tickets. If you are unable to attend on the new date, you may give your tickets to family/friend/etc or use the Self Swap tool to exchange your tickets.  If an alternate date and time option is provided to you and you choose not to go, WE WILL NOT OFFER REFUNDS for any unused tickets. In the event that a date and/or timeslot is cancelled and no general postponement date and time is offered, ticket holders must use the Self-Swap tool to exchange their tickets for an alternative date.

TICKET MISUSE WARNING

Tickets may only be used once.  After they are scanned, they cannot be used again.  Anyone attempting to gain entry with a previously scanned ticket will be denied entry. It’s important that you don’t mistakenly print your tickets twice and have more than one person attempt entry using the same ticket number.

THIRD PARTY TICKET SELLER WARNING

The only valid tickets to RISE of the Jack O'Lanterns are those purchased directly from our website, Jackolanterns.com. Tickets purchased from third party sellers or from individuals may be invalid for entry into our event. Visitors attempting to use invalid tickets will be denied entry. We are unable to assist visitors who did not purchase tickets directly from our website, jackolanterns.com. Make sure you purchase your tickets directly from us.

Phew....that was a lot of words to write. Can we go back to carving pumpkins now??? :)
