We want to inform you that all registrations are non-refundable. We understand that circumstances can change, and if you find yourself unable to attend, we offer the option to transfer your ticket to another individual.

Feel free to express your intention on the DancePlace 'Transfer Board' or the BraZouky Australia Facebook Event page. Once both parties agree on the transfer, kindly email the recipient's details and payment receipt to the BraZouky Team at info@brazouky.com. Please note that transfers can only be made until the announced cut-off date for each event (for example, January 11, 2026 for BraZouky 2026) — check the current year's event page or contact us for the exact deadline.

We strongly recommend emailing us to double check before buying someone’s pass, to avoid scams.
