Friends of Grayshott Concerts – 2022
How to renew or join
As a charity, we are hugely reliant on the support of our Friends to continue to fulfil our mission of bringing world-class performance to people in Grayshott and the surrounding area.
There are FIVE levels of Friends membership so that you can choose the most affordable option for you.
The key benefit of becoming a Friend is that it allows you priority access to book tickets for forthcoming concerts (subject to limitations as detailed below).
Requests for reservations by Friends can be made at any time once a concert is declared open to Friends. The earlier you book the better the tickets you will be allocated within your group.
Exactly TWO calendar months before each event, Friends 'priority' ends, and seats are allocated to them, in the following order, at this date. Only after that stage will booking be opened to the general public (i.e. General Booking):
Please note :
- We have arranged the seat entitlements to ensure fairness to everyone. However, if you would like to bring a larger party than your above entitlement allows, please talk to us well in advance of an event as we would not want you to be disappointed. We will do everything possible to accommodate all our ‘Friends’ (and their friends too!) and the more notice we have, the more likely it is that we can meet your request.
- You are entitled to amend your reservation (increase, reduce or cancel altogether) at any time before the priority booking period ends (two months before each concert). Please advise us, before priority closes, by This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or through the 'contact us' facility on our website .
- As a special perk to Friends, we only require payment for your tickets at the end of the Friends priority booking period. Please note that this period ends exactly two calendar months before each concert. Whatever remains in our booking system at the end of that day will be your responsibility to settle when we request payment. In case of queries, please contact us before the end of the priority booking period.

IMPORTANT Please note payment procedures:
- New and renewal subscriptions should be paid for online through secure WorldPay
- Friends are charged for their tickets when their Priority ends two months before each concert, as follows:
- Within two weeks of the end of the Priority period, Friends will be emailed a ‘Pay Now’ button which will take them to an online payment box with details of the charges due and methods of paying online by debit/credit card (debit preferred).
- Payment must then be made within 14 days. If payment is not received in this period, the reservation may be cancelled and your tickets offered to others.
- Friends (and others who book after general booking has opened) will be asked to pay online at the time of booking.
- Tickets will be sent by email approximately TWO weeks before each concert
