These terms and conditions, along with our Data Processing Addendum (the “Terms”) apply to your order and AVA Experience Limited’s (“we”, “us” or “Avva”) supply of Services to you (the “Contract”). These terms apply only to Group Bookings and not to auctions, experiences and the general use of the Avva Platform, the terms for which can be found here.

These Terms constitute an agreement (the “Agreement”) between us and you. Please read these terms carefully as they affect your rights and obligations under the law.

If you do not agree to these Terms in full, please do not place an order with us or use the Services.

2. EXPERIENCES

We negotiate and advertise Experiences with Experience Providers as well as create and advertise our own Experiences for the benefit of those looking to enjoy experiences with private groups. Providing Experiences form part of the Services that we provide to you. 

Depending on the Experience that you purchase Avva or The Experience Provider is solely responsible for supplying the Experience. 

When purchasing or redeeming an Experience, you acknowledge that Experiences are dependent on factors beyond our control and agree we are not liable for the

cancellation, postponement or alteration of any Experience for reasons beyond our reasonable control. 

Experiences may on occasion be withdrawn due to circumstances outside of our control. We will not be held liable for any costs incurred as a result of such withdrawal. 

Experience costs, descriptions, formats and timings provided on our website are only intended to provide a general indication of the Experience. Photographs are for illustrative purposes only, and do not represent the Experience you may receive and do not form part of any agreement between you and us or between you and any Experience Provider. 

We will not be responsible for descriptions by or on any third party or Experience Providers’ websites or in any other materials. 

Where Experiences are provided by us we are responsible for supplying the Experience.

3. ADDITIONAL SERVICES

In addition to our Experiences described in Section 2 of these Terms, we may offer a range of Additional Services to you for which a fee is payable. The details of which will be included in any quotation for Services we provide to you. The following Additional Services may include but are not limited to:

  • Sourcing a suitable venue/s for your experience or event requirements and negotiating with venues on your behalf

  • Providing expert advice on your experience or event plans and strategies

4. ORDERS

You can make an enquiry with us via our website, phone or over email. Based on the information you provide and any further discussion we will then provide you with a quotation for our Services which includes the arranging of a chosen Experience. This quotation is for information only and is not a legal offer to provide the Services. Quotations are valid for 14 days from the date you receive it. 

Having received a quotation you can confirm your order via email. Each order you place is an offer by you to buy the Services specified in the order (the “Services”) subject to these Terms. 

Our acceptance of your order takes place when we send an email to you to accept it (the “ Confirmation”), at which point and on which date (the “Contract Date”) the

Contract between you and us will come into existence. The Contract will relate only to those Services provided in the confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, if you have not made payment in full we will not be obliged to provide the Services, and shall have no liability to you for cancelling the Services. 

If we are unable to supply you with the Services we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order. If you have already paid we will refund you the full amount.

5. FEES & PAYMENT

You must pay the Fees in full before the Services are confirmed. Payment must be made within 3 working days of receiving your confirmation. Any variations to this date or payment schedule must be agreed between us in writing. 

For bookings made over a calendar month in advance of any Experience you must pay the minimum booking amount to secure your Experience.
