A canceled show, a postponed date, or a lineup that changed after you already bought tickets shouldn't mean losing your money to fine print. Show cancellations, postponements, venue changes, and orders from Ticketmaster, Live Nation, StubHub, and other third-party resellers are some of the most common cases Advocate helps people resolve. Upload your order confirmation, the original event listing, and any update emails — Advocate organizes the details, flags what's missing, and builds your case for you.

Know Your Rights

Ticket refund rules vary by platform and by what actually changed about the event. Here are a few facts worth knowing before you start a case:

Cancelled
If an event is fully cancelled and not rescheduled, most major platforms owe you a refund of the ticket price and fees — you generally shouldn't have to ask twice.
Postponed
A new date isn't automatically a refund trigger on every platform. Policies differ on whether you must actively request a refund by a stated deadline.
Material Change
A different venue, city, headliner, or lineup than what you paid for can count as a "material change" that opens the door to a refund, even without a full cancellation.
Resellers
Third-party marketplaces like StubHub carry their own guarantee separate from the original ticket seller — who owes you the refund depends on where you actually bought the ticket.
