RESERVATION AND DEPOSIT

Reservations are tentative and therefore may be cancelled by Dave & Buster's at any time until a signed contract and deposit are received by Dave & Buster's. A 50% deposit in the amount of $125 is due at the time the reservation (live screening) is made. Deposits are applied to the balance, and the entire balance is due on the event date. Unpaid balances will bear interest from due date at 1% per month not to exceed the highest rate allowable by law.

CANCELLATION POLICY

In the event the Host cancels this Dave & Buster's Special Event Contract (the "Agreement") prior to the initial arrival date of the event, Dave & Buster's will necessarily incur damages including, but not limited to, turning away other group events and the ancillary revenue associated with those events. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Host shall have the right to cancel this Agreement, without cause, upon written notification to Dave & Buster's at any time prior to the event and upon payment of the amount expressed below:

The parties agree that the sums are not a penalty, but represent a reasonable effort on behalf of Dave & Buster's to establish its loss prospectively and represent liquid damages. Such payment shall be made by certified check or credit card and shall accompany notice from the Host to cancel this agreement. Any attempt to cancel without the inclusion of payment, as set forth above, shall be invalid.

CANCELLATION ON BEHALF OF DAVE & BUSTER’S

FOOD AND BEVERAGE

Host understands that consuming raw and undercooked meats, poultry, fish/shellfish or eggs may increase the risk of food borne illness, especially if a guest has certain medical conditions. Any food remaining at the conclusion of the event may be taken off premises. Host acknowledges that the handling and storage of any leftover food items are the Host's sole responsibility and Host agrees to release and hold Dave & Buster's harmless from any and all claims arising from the preparation and consumption of leftover food items. Foods left behind after the event's party will be discarded. Buffets are portioned per person and quantities based on the contracted number of guests. Buffet portions are finite and not replenishable. Additional charges will apply if more food is requested by Host, and extra servings are subject to availability. Dave & Buster's does not allow outside food of any kind to be brought into the facility without prior written approval. As a responsible server in accordance with state and local beverage regulations, we reserve the right to monitor and limit consumption of alcoholic beverages. It is customary to leave a gratuity for your service team, which will be shared among the servers, bartenders, and support team who work to ensure your event exceeds your expectations. To aid in your planning, a suggested gratuity of 20% of the total food and beverage charge is included in the event total in this document. For your convenience, the suggested gratuity amount will be included on the receipt you receive the date of the event.

    This festival claims to be free but then asks you to pay $250 when they "accept" your submission. There is currently nothing in the description on this festival stating it cost money to submit.

  • Frankie and the Indie Nights team run a filmmaker-friendly night. It's an intimate, yet energetic setting with moderators who introduce each movie and engage in insightful Q&A's with the filmmakers. They promote the event and are very organized. I was really impressed and would definitely submit my next film. If that's not enough... it's free.

  • Fun event that really makes the filmmaker feel wanted and appreciated. Great Q&A afterward and Frankie does a great job at coordinating the evening.

  • What a great screening series. Great audience and filmmakers of all ages, talents, disciplines and backgrounds. Loved the venue and the quality of the projection and sound. Who knew Dave & Buster’s had such an awesome screening room. Intelligent, informative Q & A. Met some amazing filmmakers I’ll be staying in touch with. Keep an eye on this screening series. Thanks to the entire staff. Will see you again soon.
