Patrons acknowledge that such events, in particular sporting events, may be dangerous. Risks include collision with fixed or moving objects, falling or tripping, exposure to adverse weather, or acts of violence committed by other patrons. This includes the risk that a sporting ball may be thrown, kicked or otherwise projected into the seating areas at high velocity and the risk that participants may lose their footing and collide with Patrons. Patrons enter the MSBA at their own risk and the Operator of the MSBA does not accept any responsibility for damage to, loss or theft of a Patron’s personal property nor for any other loss, damage or injury suffered by any Patron, whether in contract, tort or statutory liability. This clause applies to the full extent permitted by law.

19. (WARNING - Obvious Risks - COVID-19 and Viral Transmission): Patrons understand that there is an unmeasurable risk of transmission of viral illness including COVID-19 at an event at this time, particularly given that carriers of the illness may be infectious whilst asymptomatic. Patrons have considered that risk and their own personal circumstances, including any health condition or vulnerability that patrons may have or that of persons whom patrons will be in close contact with following their attendance at an event.  Patrons acknowledge that, for a small number of people, COVID-19 has very serious health consequences.  By attending an event, Patrons acknowledge and accept these obvious risks.

20. (No Promotional Activities): Patrons must not conduct any unauthorized promotional, political or commercial activities within the MyState Bank Arena, including in relation to an event or function or otherwise.

  • distributing promotional or advertising materials, including political or religious advertising; or
  • engaging in ambush marketing; or
  • posting advertising, bills, flyers, bills, banners, posters, papers or any other signage within or on the surfaces (whether internal or external) of the MSBA.

21. (No Recording of Events): Patrons must not, without the prior written consent of the Operator:

  • make any recording or take any photograph of any event or any person at the MSBA;
  • sell, supply, distribute, license or otherwise publish, disseminate, reproduce or exploit (or allow any other person to do so), in whole or in part, any audio, visual or audio-visual recordings taken or made inside the MSBA (including, without limitation, photographs, video recordings, data recordings or sound recordings); or
  • broadcast, transmit, stream or otherwise distribute or communicate by any means (including by use of a video or audio recording device) any images, sounds, data, results or commentary of or concerning any of the events or other activities at the MSBA.

22. (Communication of Data): Patrons must not use any device (including a phone, tablet, laptop or computer) to collect, communicate or transmit any form of commentary, data or other material in relation to a sporting event being conducted at the MSBA, including statistics.

23. (Integrity in Sports): The Operator treats matters relating to integrity in sports seriously. Patrons must not:

  • communicate (in any way) any information to another person (whether that person is located within or outside the MSBA) that may give that other person an unfair advantage if they were to engage in gambling related to that information (including practices known as ‘court siding’);
  • provide inside information (which is not publicly available), such as team selection or member’s configuration, whether or not for betting purposes; or
  • participate (by act or by omission) in any match-fixing or attempted match-fixing by:
  • exerting undue influence on any occurrence within a sporting event;
  • inducing or encouraging any person to deliberately underperform;
  • ensuring or unduly influencing a particular incident that is subject to a bet; or
  • facilitating, assisting, aiding, abetting, encouraging, covering-up, or being complicit in any other way the conduct referred to above.

24. (Ticketing Terms): These Conditions of Entry must be read together with any terms or conditions of entry or ticketing that may be applied or imposed by:

  • the Operator’s ticketing agent for events (at the date of these Conditions of Entry, Ticketek is the ticketing agent but another ticketing agent may be appointed for certain events from time to time);
  • the promoter of the event at the MSBA;
  • the hirer of the MSBA for the event; or
  • the performing artist or sporting clubs or bodies performing or participating in the event. These terms or conditions will be made known to Patrons by the relevant person. For example, the ticketing agent’s terms and conditions are set out on the ticketing agent’s website, and the sporting bodies terms and conditions are set out on their website, in each case as amended from time to time. In the event of any inconsistency between those terms or conditions, and these Conditions of Entry, these Conditions of Entry prevail. To avoid doubt, an inconsistency does not arise merely because those terms or conditions impose additional terms or conditions over and above those in these Conditions of Entry.

25. (Failure to Comply): A failure to comply with any of these Conditions of Entry may result in eviction or ejection from the MSBA and a prohibition on re-entry or attempted re-entry into the MSBA for a period of 24 hours from eviction or ejection, or such longer period determined by the Operator. Additionally, for certain failures of these Conditions of Entry, the Operator may report Patrons to the enforcement authorities, including Sports Integrity Australia. Patrons may be liable for prosecution or be fined by a competent lawful authority. The Operator may co-operate with the authorities in the enforcement of any breach of applicable laws. No ticket refund will be paid to patrons ejected from or refused entry to the MSBA in accordance with these Conditions of Entry.

26. (Variation): Please note that the above Conditions of Entry may vary from time to time.

27. (Governing Law): These Conditions of Entry are governed by the laws of the State of Tasmania and its appellate courts. The Patron waives any right to claim that the Courts of that place do not have jurisdiction, are an inconvenient forum or that the Courts of such other place are a more appropriate forum.
