ON THE DAY
Two hours before the event begins, you’ll be able to activate your ticket in the app and generate your unique QR code.
Just follow these steps.
1. Open the DICE app. Tap the ticket icon at the bottom of the screen.
2. Choose the event.
3. Tap Activate QR code.
Once you activate your ticket, you will no longer be able to send it to a friend.
If you bought tickets for a group and you’re arriving together, you can show everyone’s tickets on your device to the door staff.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU CAN’T MAKE THE SHOW
We’ve all been there – you’ve double-booked yourself, you’re unwell and can’t make it, or you’ve got another commitment. It happens. But a change of plans doesn’t mean your ticket has to go to waste. Here’s what you can do.
OFFER YOUR TICKET TO ANOTHER FAN
We believe tickets belong in the hands of fans, and that they should only ever be sold for a fair price. That’s why we have the Wait List: if you can’t make it to a sold-out event, you can add your ticket to the queue to be purchased by another fan. If the ticket is sold, you’ll get your money back – no drama, no rip-offs.
There are a few conditions, though. Not every show will have the Wait List function switched on (that’s up to the event organisers, not DICE), and tickets can only be added to the Wait List after a show sells out. On top of that – and this is important – you’ll only get your money back if another fan buys your ticket.
Learn more about how the Wait List works.
Transfer your ticket to a friend
If a friend is keen to attend an event you can’t make, you can transfer your ticket to them quickly and securely within the app. Just make sure you have their number saved in your phone, and that they have a DICE account registered with that number.
After you transfer the ticket, it will be stored within the DICE app on your friend’s phone – there’s no fiddling with name changes, emailing PDFs, or sending across screenshots. It’s just another way we make sure tickets don’t fall into the wrong hands.
The whole process takes seconds, here’s a step-by-step breakdown.
Can I just get a refund?
Buying a ticket to a live event is similar to booking a flight, in the sense that it’s very rare you can get a refund just because you change your mind, or your circumstances change.
At DICE, you’re always entitled to a refund if an event you have tickets for is cancelled or rescheduled; if the event organiser gives us explicit instructions to refund you; or if another fan buys your ticket through the Wait List. In each of these scenarios, we’ll refund the full cost to your original payment method, and the money should hit your account in five to 10 working days.
But if you decide you don’t want to go to an event anymore, or something gets in the way of you attending, we’re afraid we won’t be able to offer you a refund.
DRESS CODE
Dresscode
The TG dress code strives to avoid narrow limitations and encourage individual imagination and diversity. A modern fetish club is more about fantasy and transformation than just rubber and leather, and many of the best outfits seen at TG are made by those wearing them or assembled from various second-hand articles (i.e. theatrical costume or uniforms). So, if you can’t afford expensive latex or leather costumes then explore personal fantasies and use your imagination, or even try body paint! Please always remember that if your outfit wouldn’t turn heads in the street – don’t bother to wear it to Torture Garden. (although you’re welcome to bring your outfit in a bag and get changed in the club).
We have a list of definite “no’s”, so make sure you take the time to really think about what you will wear to the club to avoid disappointment and being turned away on the night…For more info and inspiration check out our dresscode page, blog and gallery.
There is no such thing as “too much” at TG, we are a home for people to push their boundaries and be the most extreme version of themselves…so step outside of your everyday persona and think about who you could be but don’t dare to be in your everyday life!
Why is the TG dresscode so strict? (i.e. “I can wear a suit to xyz club, why can’t I wear it TG?” or “I’ve been on the fetish scene for 1000 years, I shouldn’t have to dress up to prove I’m into fetish!”)
Part of the philosophy of the club, and something that sets us apart from other fetish clubs, is the super strict dresscode. We want to be somewhere you can come to express the most extreme version of yourself, that you can’t express anywhere else!
So whether your alter ego is head-to-toe latex clad goddess; you’re an avid crossdresser that’s ready to take that fabulous persona you’ve been working on at home out somewhere accepting; you’re a club kid with an amazing look that just doesn’t feel quite right for anywhere else; or you’d like to loudly and proudly declare your piss fetish to the world (see below)…we want to create an environment you feel proud to flaunt your look in.
Of course you don’t have to love dressing up to be a true fetishist, but at the end of the day it’s pretty simple. If you don’t like dressing up, we aren’t the right club for you!
Well essentially, if you have a fetish AND you love dressing up, we’ll probably love YOU. However, for those of you that want a bit more clarification, here’s a few things that we think are great:
Latex (I mean if this isn’t obvious from the photos then I don’t know what is!)
Leather (we’re talking heavy leather here, we aren’t so keen on wetlook. And whilst that amazing designer leather dress you have is HOT, if you could wear it out to a regular club and not get any weird looks, it probably isn’t for us!)
Drag
Club Kid (if you don’t know what this means, we suggest you google, paying particular attention to Leigh Bowery. Hopefully you’ll be simultaneously mind blown and inspired. Sidenote – if you happen upon Party Monster in your searches, please take it as a cautionary tale, not an instructional manual!)
Avant Garde
Full (genuine) Uniform – military, school uniform/head teacher’s gown, medical (although like TLC we don’t want no scrubs…unless this really, genuinely is your thing – and even then we ask you make sure it’s fully kitted out with all the medical accoutrements)
OTT Theatrical – think circus ringmaster, burlesque/vintage underwear, historically inspired looks, corsetry etc.
Crossdressing We do still ask that this is more of a fetish look, rather than daywear though
When you spend time planning and customising or making an outfit….or better still matching outfits/accessories with your friends or partner/s. SERIOUSLY. I cannot applaud this kind of effort enough. Even if the finish isn’t quite as good as buying it from a designer, it honestly makes me so happy to know that you’ve put so much time and thought into your look! This is how legends are born! (Maybe don’t quote me on that last part. I will, at least, think you’re a legend though 😉 )
Anything with a unique or creative slant on regular fetish wear A couple of my personal favourites were an older gentleman that turned up in an expertly knitted harness and jockstrap, and a lady that made pasties and a strap-on cock out of broccoli (a brocockoli, if you will)
We wouldn’t be seen dead at the club in… (yes you’ve been very naughty, and yes… you’re being sent home without a refund)
Jeans/denim – This includes black jeans, and (my personal pet peeve) coated denim. The amount of people I’ve had try to point blank insist to me that their coated denim jeans are leather/PVC is unreal! What most people don’t know is that I have special x-ray vision that allows me to see the fabric composition on clothing labels, and I know it says 97% cotton, 3% elastane (but now you know, so you won’t be making that mistake will you?).
Sportswear We appreciate this is a genuine fetish, but if you want to explore this at TG it’s going to have to be something a bit more creative than your gym shorts and stinky trainers – latex and leather versions of your favourite sportswear look are always welcome, of course! And if stinky trainers are your thing, then the rest of the outfit had better be damn good!
Regular Partywear If you can wear it to a regular club, party, restaurant etc.; you can’t wear it here!
Regular Cotton Shirts / T-shirts /Regular Fabric Trousers…any kind of streetwear If this needs an explanation, you need to go back to the start of the article, read it again and PAY ATTENTION this time!
Cotton underwear They might be your very best, new boxers…you might look SEXY AS FUCK in them, but picture this…
You’re on a regular night out… you pull an absolute STUNNER and take them back to yours. You passionately undress each other, and before you know it you’re down to your underwear. When they see it are they shocked? Intrigued? Excited because they didn’t think you’d be into THAT, and you’ve found a kindred spirit? If the answer is none of these, it isn’t right for TG. Leave it at home!
Fancy Dress Because nothing says you’re really into medical play like a tacky £10 Naughty Nurse outfit from Ebay*. Seriously though, if you can happily wear it to a Halloween party (or any regular fancy dress party for that matter), then it isn’t for us.
Leggings (including wet look leggings) Unfortunately too many people kept turning up in just wet look leggings and not much else, as a minimal effort outfit. So we just can’t allow them at all anymore!
*As a caveat, if you’re going to customise that into something incredible and unique, then bring it on. Otherwise it’s a no!
