Cancellation by the client:

If the client wishes to cancel the tribute band’s performance, they may be required to provide notice within a specified timeframe. The notice period could range from a few weeks to several months before the scheduled event. If the cancellation occurs within this designated period, the client may be obligated to pay a percentage of the agreed-upon fee or a predetermined cancellation fee. The specific amount would depend on the terms agreed upon in the contract.

Force majeure or unforeseen circumstances:

In certain cases, a cancellation policy may account for unforeseen circumstances beyond the client’s or the tribute band’s control, such as natural disasters, severe weather conditions, or illness. These situations are often covered under a force majeure clause, which allows for cancellation or rescheduling without financial penalties. The specific force majeure provisions would be outlined in the contract.

Cancellation by the tribute band:

If the band needs to cancel the performance due to unavoidable circumstances, they should provide notice to the client as early as possible. In such cases, the band may offer a rescheduled date or refund any deposit or fees paid by the client. Again, the terms for cancellations initiated by the band should be outlined in the contract.
