The Companion Card is not a new responsibility; nor is it a benefit or a discount scheme. It simply ensures that people who are unable to attend venues and events without a companion to provide attendant care support, are not charged two admission fees. Responsible use of your Companion Card will ensure that organisations continue to participate in the program.

You must only use your Companion Card if you are unable to participate at a particular venue or event without attendant care support; not only for reassurance or social support. If you have previously attended an activity independently, this arrangement should continue.

ENTERING THE BEAUDESERT SHOW: You are required to present your Companion Card when you are purchasing your ticket. Organisations that accept the Companion Card will require you to pay only for your own ticket.  A second ticket will NOT BE ISSUED for your companion.   You are required to keep the card in view at all times for security purpose and proof of entry, your companion must remain with you during the event.

Only the person whose photograph and name appear on the card can use the Companion Card.

You will be required to show your Companion Card when purchasing your ticket, or at any time during your attendance at a venue or activity.  If you cannot present your card, you may be charged for the Companion Ticket. The Companion Ticket is not valid unless the cardholder is present.

Misuse of your Companion Card will be reported and can lead to card cancellation
