Rain & Weather Policy
Mansfield Speedway – Rain & Weather Policy (Legal Version)
1. General Policy
All events held at Mansfield Speedway (“Venue”) are rain or shine unless Venue management determines, in its sole discretion, that weather conditions create an unsafe environment for spectators, participants, performers, or staff. The purchaser and/or holder of any ticket, pass, or credential (“Ticketholder”) acknowledges that weather conditions are inherently unpredictable and that the Venue may delay, modify, or suspend any event at any time due to weather or related safety concerns.
2. No Refunds
Except as expressly stated herein, all ticket sales are final and non-refundable, including but not limited to cancellations, delays, rescheduling, or modifications caused by weather. The Ticketholder understands and agrees that the Venue bears no obligation to issue monetary refunds under any circumstance involving weather.
3. Motorsports and Competition Events
For all racing, motorsports, or competitive driving events:
a. The Venue may, at its sole discretion, implement delays, schedule adjustments, track maintenance periods, or shortened program formats due to weather.
b. If any competition, race, or scheduled on-track activity has commenced, the event will be deemed to have been “substantially performed,” and no rain check or credit shall be issued.
c. If weather renders the continuation of the event unsafe before any on-track activity has begun, the Venue may issue a rain check valid for the rescheduled date or for an event of equal or lesser value within the same season. Such rain check shall be the Ticketholder’s sole and exclusive remedy.
4. Concerts, Festivals, and Non-Motorsports Events
For concerts, festivals, expos, shows, and all non-motorsports programs:
a. These events operate rain or shine, and temporary weather-related interruptions shall not entitle Ticketholder to any refund or compensation.
b. If the event is cancelled prior to public gate opening due solely to severe weather, the Venue may provide a credit or rain check to the rescheduled date or a comparable event within the same season.
c. If gates have opened and the event has commenced, the event shall be deemed delivered, and no refunds or credits will be issued if weather forces early termination.
5. Seasonal Attractions and Light Shows
a. Seasonal attractions, including holiday light shows, operate during periods of rain, fog, and winter weather.
b. In the event of extreme or unsafe conditions (including but not limited to ice storms, severe winds, or lightning), the Venue may temporarily suspend operations or close for the evening.
c. If the Venue elects to close due to extreme weather, the Ticketholder may reschedule for another available operating time or date at no additional charge. No monetary refund will be provided.
6. Camping and Parking
a. All camping and parking reservations are non-refundable.
b. Weather-related disruptions shall not entitle the Ticketholder to refunds or compensation.
c. The Venue may require temporary evacuation or sheltering for safety; such actions shall not constitute grounds for refunds or credits.
7. Assumption of Risk
By entering the Venue, the Ticketholder acknowledges and voluntarily assumes all risks associated with weather, including but not limited to rain, lightning, wind, heat, cold, snow, or ice. The Ticketholder agrees that the Venue, its owners, affiliates, officers, employees, contractors, and representatives shall not be liable for any loss, damage, injury, delay, or disappointment caused by weather or weather-related decisions.
8. Sole Discretion of Management
All determinations regarding weather, safety, event continuation, suspension, rescheduling, or cancellation shall be made at the sole and exclusive discretion of Mansfield Speedway management. Such decisions shall be final and binding.
9. Exclusive Remedy
Where a rain check or credit is offered under this policy, such remedy constitutes the Ticketholder’s sole and exclusive remedy, and the Ticketholder waives any claim to additional compensation, damages, refunds, or legal recourse arising out of weather-related disruptions.
10. Acceptance of Terms
Purchase or use of a ticket, pass, or credential constitutes the Ticketholder’s full acceptance of this Rain & Weather Policy and agreement to be bound by all terms herein.
