Frequently Asked
Something Different Live Sessions (SDLS) are curated live music experiences featuring talented artists in intimate settings. Each session is carefully crafted to deliver raw, unfiltered, and unforgettable performances.
You can purchase tickets directly through our website. Navigate to the Sessions page, select your desired event, and follow the checkout process. You'll receive a confirmation email with your ticket details and QR code.
Refunds are available up to 48 hours before the event. After that, tickets are non-refundable but can be transferred to another person. If an event is cancelled by us, you'll receive a full refund automatically.
We offer two options: event pickup (collect your order at the next session) or delivery to your address. Delivery typically takes 3-5 business days within South Africa. You'll receive tracking information via email.
While we recommend purchasing tickets online to guarantee your spot, door sales may be available if the event hasn't sold out. Online ticket holders get priority entry.
Session venues vary to keep the experience fresh and exciting. The venue details are shared with ticket holders via email a few days before each event. Follow us on social media for hints and announcements!
Most of our sessions are open to ages 18 and above. Some events may have different age requirements which will be clearly stated on the event page.
We're always looking for talented artists! Send us your demo, portfolio, or social media links through our contact page. Our team reviews all submissions and will reach out if there's a fit.
