Christmas in July-Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens

Good Day,

I purchased 4 family tickets for the event on Saturday at 18:00. The picture displayed was in NO WAY ANY INDICATION of what could be expected. Instead a string of lights hanging on the plants. This is unacceptable. In addition, we booked a 18:00 slot which we arrived for ahead of time. We had to park 500 meters from the gate (no, not ample parking as stated) with 2 kids, 3 & 6. We then had to join a joke of a queue which took an hour. Then the snow that everyone was looking forward to, was 1 machine spewing out foam for the lucky few children that could get under it. Really????? The organization was poor and unacceptable, the event NOTHING as advertised. Please advise who will be processing my refund?

I await your soonest reply.

Dear Lizelle 

Howler is not responsible for the Production of the Event as we are just a ticketing platform to purchase your tickets 
 
We are sorry to hear about your recent experience at the Christmas in July event.  We do everything in our power to vet our clients before they go on sale and there was no reason to believe this would not be as spectacular as it looked. 

As Howler we are committed to delivering the best ticketing and cashless services, however we are unfortunately not in control of the production of the event.  To help take action to the negative publicity and avoid any further disappointment we have currently taken tickets off sale. 

For further questions, comments or queries regarding the event please contact the Organizer on the contacts details below
