Preamble

Open Beatz Festival GmbH, represented by managing directors Florian Gebauer and Tobias Hagel, located at An der Römerstraße 18, 89331 Burgau (hereinafter referred to as the "Organizer"), organizes festivals (hereinafter referred to as "Open Beatz") on the designated festival grounds at Puschendorfer Str. 2, Herzogenaurach, Bavaria. The festival grounds include all areas of Open Beatz, which can only be accessed with a valid ticket (hereinafter referred to as the "Ticket"), as well as the camping area and parking zones (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Festival Grounds").

§ 1 Scope, Subject, and Conclusion of the Contract

1. These terms and conditions conclusively regulate the contractual relationship between the purchaser of a ticket or other service (hereinafter referred to as the "Visitor") and the Organizer. The Organizer points out that they act as an entrepreneur within the meaning of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB), i.e., in the exercise of their commercial or independent professional activity.

2. These General Terms and Conditions apply exclusively. Conflicting or deviating terms and conditions of the Visitor will not be recognized unless the Organizer has expressly agreed to them in individual cases.

3. These terms apply to both consumers and businesses. A consumer within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is any natural person who places an order for purposes that are predominantly outside their trade, business, or professional activity. A business within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions is any natural or legal person or legally capable partnership that places an order in the course of their trade, business, or professional activity.

4. The Organizer only enters into contracts with consumers who are at least 16 years old.

5. The primary subject of the contract is the purchase of a ticket, through which the parties enter into an event contract, granting the Visitor the right to attend the event. Additionally, the Visitor may book further services. By booking a parking or camping space, the Visitor enters into a rental agreement for a vehicle or camping spot. By booking a locker, the Visitor enters into a rental agreement for a locker (hereinafter referred to as "Locker"). The subject of the contract may also include the sale of additional items by the Organizer to the Visitor.

6. The guarding, monitoring, or safekeeping of the parked vehicle, the provision of insurance coverage, or any other activity beyond the provision of the parking space is not part of the contract. Accordingly, the Organizer assumes no custodial duties.

7. Termination of the rental agreement during the rental period is excluded. The rental agreement ends upon the expiration of the rental period unless it is terminated prematurely without notice. A refund of the rental fee in the event that the customer does not use the rented parking or camping space is only possible in accordance with the applicable legal provisions (currently Section 537 of the German Civil Code (BGB)) and is otherwise excluded.

8. Special provisions apply to the booking and use of parking spaces, the booking of camping spaces and use of the camping area, as well as the booking and use of lockers ("Lockers"). These special provisions can be found in the appendix to these General Terms and Conditions (GTC).

9. The Visitor can place an order for tickets, additional items, parking spaces, camping spaces, lockers, or other items via the Organizer's website. The Visitor makes an offer to enter into a contract when they click the "Pay Now" button (or a similarly labeled button). The contract between the Visitor and the Organizer is concluded (i) in the case of prepayment, by displaying the transfer details for the pending payment, and (ii) for all other payment methods, by assigning and sending the ticket number or the ticket to the participant. Additionally, the visible provision of access to a personal MyTicket portal always constitutes confirmation of the contract. If the Visitor does not receive such confirmation in a timely manner, they are no longer bound by their order.

10. After the full payment has been received by the Organizer, the Visitor will receive the tickets via the email address they provided. The Visitor will not receive any additional tickets by post or fax.

11. The contract text and the General Terms and Conditions will be sent to the Visitor via email after the order is placed. Additionally, Visitors who have created a customer account can access their orders at any time after the contract is concluded through their customer account.

12. The contract is concluded exclusively in German. German law applies insofar as the Visitor is a merchant.

13. All price information is stated as gross prices in euros.

§ 2 Execution of the Purchase Contract

1. Upon conclusion of the contract, payment of the purchase price is due immediately. The Visitor has the option to choose between different payment methods.

2. In the case of chargebacks, these additional costs will be charged to the Visitor.

3. If the transaction qualifies as a mutual commercial transaction under the terms of the Commercial Code, the Visitor must inspect the delivered goods without delay after receipt. This particularly applies to verifying the completeness and functionality of the goods. Any defects identified during this inspection or that are readily apparent must be reported to the seller immediately, including a detailed description of the defects. Failure to notify the seller will result in the goods being deemed accepted, unless the defect was not detectable during the inspection.

4. Defects in the goods that could not be detected during the proper inspection pursuant to paragraph 3 must be reported to the seller immediately upon discovery, provided the transaction qualifies as a mutual commercial transaction. Otherwise, the goods will also be deemed accepted with regard to such defects.

§ 3 Obligations of the Visitor

1. The Visitor is responsible for the safekeeping and carrying of the tickets to the event.

2. Tickets or other services that can only be purchased as personalized are valid solely for the respective holder of the ticket or the booked additional item for participation in the event or usage. Personalization changes are subject to the applicable General Terms and Conditions of TicketPAY Europe GmbH.

3. When using discounted tickets, the Visitor is obligated to present the corresponding proof at the event access controls without being asked. If the Visitor fails to do so, the Organizer reserves the right to withdraw from the contract after setting a reasonable deadline to fulfill the proof requirement. If it is determined that the Visitor is not entitled to the specific ticket type, it is noted that the Organizer is legally entitled to contest the contract.

4. The Visitor is obligated to use the services provided or to be provided by the Organizer solely for the purposes agreed upon in the contract. In particular, the Visitor is only permitted to use the tickets for private purposes. Any commercial resale of the purchased tickets or their use as prizes for contests, sweepstakes, or other promotional purposes is prohibited without prior consent from the Organizer. Private resale is only permitted through the TicketPAY platform and is subject to the applicable General Terms and Conditions of TicketPAY Europe GmbH.

5. Altering the ticket (e.g., printing on it, modifying it, or any other form of alteration) for the purpose of deception or disadvantaging others is prohibited.

6. Any Visitor who transfers tickets in violation of the provisions of § 3 Nos. 4 and 5 or alters tickets as described in § 3 No. 5 is obligated to pay the Organizer an appropriate contractual penalty of up to €2,500.00 per improperly offered or altered ticket or attendance right. The exact amount will be determined by the Organizer at their reasonable discretion and is subject to judicial review. The Organizer reserves the right to claim further damages, with the contractual penalty credited against such claims. Additionally, in such cases, the Organizer is entitled to confiscate the affected ticket or revoke the attendance right.

7. The Visitor must ensure that their actions in connection with the event do not violate legal regulations and/or the rights of third parties. In particular, the Visitor is obligated to verify the legal permissibility of any actions or activities themselves and to act in compliance with the law.

8. If third parties make claims against the Organizer based on the preceding clauses, the Organizer will inform the Visitor immediately. The Visitor agrees to indemnify the Organizer from any liability towards third parties, assist in the legal defense, and cover the costs of reasonable legal defense, provided that the Organizer is not at fault. In such cases, the indemnification will be reduced by the proportionate share of fault attributable to the Organizer.

§ 4 Changes, Cancellation, and Termination by the Organizer

1. The Organizer has no influence over the design, duration, or content of individual performances and therefore assumes no liability towards the Visitor for these aspects.

2. The ticket grants access to a variety of concerts and accompanying events on the festival grounds. The Organizer has the right to make last-minute changes to the schedule, content, and location of the respective events. The Organizer will, as far as possible, provide equivalent alternatives. This does not entitle the Visitor to withdraw from or cancel their tickets, as long as the overall character of Open Beatz remains intact.

3. Delays and rescheduling of individual program items must be accepted by the Visitor insofar as they are reasonable.

4. Cancellations or changes will be announced by the Organizer as soon as possible and may occur even after the festival has started for important reasons. The Organizer will try to immediately announce any program changes on its website at www.openbeatz.de as well as on the relevant social media channels. Changes during the festival will be communicated by the Organizer through the festival app and social media channels.

5. The Organizer reserves the right to relocate or cancel the event for important reasons, either in terms of location and/or date. In such cases, a refund claim is limited to the face value of the ticket and only up to the event date. Further claims are excluded unless the limitation or exclusion of liability under these General Terms and Conditions applies.

6. The Organizer is relieved from the obligation to perform in cases of force majeure. Force majeure includes all unforeseen events as well as those events whose effects on the fulfillment of the contract are not attributable to either party. These events specifically include epidemics, pandemics, lawful labor strikes, including in third-party companies, and government measures. In the event of cancellation by the Organizer, any already paid fees will be refunded; further claims are excluded unless the limitation or exclusion of liability under § 6 of this contract applies.

7. Open Beatz will generally take place in any weather conditions. However, if weather conditions pose a danger to the life, health, or safety of the visitors, artists, and/or staff, the Organizer may cancel Open Beatz immediately. If, due to weather conditions or a government order, court decision, or other unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances, a service to be provided by the Organizer becomes impossible or delayed (e.g., labor disputes, operational disruptions, transportation obstacles, government measures – including those affecting the Organizer's contractual partners), the Organizer is entitled to cancel the event.

8. Additionally, the current notices and the instructions of the security staff on-site apply.

§ 5 Photos and Recordings

We would like to inform you that audio and video recordings will be made by the Organizer and third parties commissioned by them before and during the entire event. These recordings may be published, distributed, and shared by the Organizer on the internet, in print media, and other media, insofar as this is permissible under the provisions of the GDPR and the German Copyright Act (KunstUrhG).

§ 6 Liability

2.If the Visitor is a business, the warranty period for rights under § 437 No. 1 and No. 3 of the German Civil Code (BGB) for new items is one year from the statutory commencement of the limitation period, deviating from § 438 para. 1 No. 3 BGB. For consumers, the statutory warranty period of two years applies in the case of § 438 para. 1 No. 3 BGB.

3. If parking spaces, camping passes, lockers, or other additional items are booked, the application of rental contract law may apply additionally. In rental agreements, the Organizer’s liability for damages, which were already present at the time of contract conclusion, is excluded regardless of fault.

4. In the event of a case of statutory warranty, liability for defects is excluded for defects caused by external influences not attributable to the Organizer, or by improper use by the Visitor.

9. The Visitor is liable for any damage caused by themselves or their accompanying persons on the parking lot, camping grounds, or to other visitors. Any damage caused during the stay by the Visitor or their accompanying persons must be reported to the Organizer immediately.

10.

The Organizer is fully liable for damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence, for fraudulent concealment of defects, for the assumption of a warranty for the condition of goods, for claims under the Product Liability Act, and for violations of life, body, or health. For other damages, the Organizer is only liable if a duty is violated, the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper execution of the contract and upon which the Visitor can regularly rely (cardinal duties), or if it involves a risk that is solely under the Organizer's control. The above liability limitations also apply to the Organizer's agents.
