What happens if it rains?
If a performance is cancelled due to rain before gates open time www.thedream.net.au will show the session as cancelled.

If the Night Sky Productions manager at the venue declares the session a "rain out" an announcement will be made advising you that the session is cancelled and your ticket will be automatically revalidated as a rain-out ticket and that it can be used for another night later in the season. It can only be used at the venue for which it was originally booked. It is only valid for the 2007 season.

If the rain out happens on the last night of the season, there will be no refunds.

You must hold on to your tickets and they must be intact to be permitted to re-enter on the later date.

What if I pre-booked but decided not to go because it looked like rain?
It might not have rained at the venue, so the performance might not have been cancelled. You can check online at www.thedream.net.au

If the performance is declared a rain out by the Night Sky Productions manager at the venue, all tickets purchased for that session will be revalidated and can be used for another night later in the season. Print out your ticket or take your credit card to the venue and ask for a replacement ticket to be printed. Night Sky Productions does not refund tickets in the event of a declared rain out.
