LMP On Demand: Help & FAQs

Buying tickets for online concerts:

How do I buy a ticket for and watch an online concert?

You buy and watch all online concerts via the LMP website, and they will be listed on our LMP On Demand page. Simply scroll down and click on the concert you wish to watch. On the concert page, click the red ‘Buy & Watch’ button and you will be taken through the payment process to secure your ticket. After making your purchase, click on the ‘My on Demand’ button at the top of the website, and you will be taken to your ‘My On Demand’ page where all your ‘tickets’ are stored. When the concert is available to view online, a red ‘WATCH’ button will go live on your ‘ticket’. Simply click this button to be taken to the concert page where your video will now be ready to watch.

How do I watch the Spotlight On… concerts if I buy the ‘Package’

If you have bought a ‘Package’ of the Spotlight concerts, the ‘Package’ ticket will appear in your ‘My On Demand’ page, which you can access via the button at the top right of the website (you must be logged in). Click ‘WATCH’ on your ‘ticket’ and you will be taken to the ‘Package’ page. To watch your concert you simply scroll down this page to where you see ‘WATCH – Spotlight On Sheku’ (for example) and click that red text (which is a link) which will take you to that online concert page where the video will have loaded (a video on the ‘Package’ page will also give these instructions). Concert films will only be live from certain dates, and only available to view for 30 days from their go-live date.

Do I have to have an account to purchase a ticket?

No, you don’t have to have created an account before you make a purchase. During the payment process for your first concert ticket, you will need to confirm your email address and you must create a password at the end of the payment process in order to access your account to watch the films.

How do I use a Discount Code?

Discount Codes must be added when you click through to your ‘Basket’ to purchase your ticket(s). Add the code into the ‘Discount Code’ field on the right-hand side of the Basket page and click the ‘Apply Code’ button. The discount will be applied. If you are an LMP Friend, your discount will be applied automatically as soon as you have logged in with your email and password. If you have a ‘Gift Voucher’, or you have credit in your account, then you need to wait until you reach the payment page at the end of the process, and then you redeem the voucher or tick the ‘use credit’ field as part of the process.

How do I redeem a Gift Voucher or access the credit in my account to make a purchase?

If you have a Gift Voucher, or credit in your account, then these can be redeemed as part of the purchase process. This is not redeemed via ‘Basket’ but on the ‘Checkout’ page, where you add the Gift Voucher (enter the voucher ID and press ‘return’ and it will be redeemed) or tick the ‘use Credit’ field when prompted. The amount will be deducted from your final payment.

I am an LMP Friend, how do I get my discount?

LMP Friends enjoy a variety of discounts. Your discount will be applied automatically as soon as you have logged in and started the payment process. If you are not an LMP Friend then you can find out more about the scheme here.

Do I need to make a donation to buy a ticket?

No, this is simply an invitation to top up your ticket price with a small donation to support the orchestra. If you would like to make a donation, then add the amount and click the button and you will be invited to add gift aid before you then proceed through the payment process.

Is payment secure?

Yes. All sensitive data we handle is sent via SSL – this means that data is shared via an encrypted link and is completely secure.

Will I get an email confirmation/receipt when I purchase a ticket?

Yes, you will receive an email confirmation for all ticket purchases. The copy on these is generic so ignore any requests to ‘show this confirmation email on the day’ if you have purchased a ticket for an online concert. In case you cannot see the receipt in your inbox, please check your Junk or Spam folder.

I am not based in the UK, can I still access the concerts?

Yes you can! We can accept payment in GBP sterling, and when you buy a ticket you will automatically pay in the relevant currency for your location. Simply create an account and buy your ticket with a Visa, Mastercard credit or debit cards or American Express credit card and your transaction will be processed, but please note that your bank/credit card company may add extra transaction fees.

How do I access and watch online concerts?

Once you have bought a ticket to an online concert, your tickets will be held on your ‘My on Demand’ page, which can be accessed via the relevant button at the top of the LMP website home page.

This page will list ALL the online concerts that you have bought tickets for, and once the concert goes live, a red ‘WATCH’ button will appear on your ‘ticket’. Click ‘WATCH’ and you will be taken to the concert page where your video will be live.

You can also access the concerts via the ‘LMP On Demand’ page; if you have paid for a ticket for a concert, then the video will be available when you visit the relevant concert page (as long as you are logged in).

How long do I have access to a concert film?

Most concerts will be available to view for six months, but some concerts only have a limited viewing time (eg 48 hours), so do check the viewing dates on the concert page when you purchase your ticket.

Can I watch the concerts on different devices?

How do I find out more about forthcoming concerts?

Troubleshooting:

In the payment process, I entered my email but instead of being asked to enter a password, I was emailed a link. Why is that?

If you have not yet set up an account then we may not have your details in the system, so we need to send you a link for you to confirm your email address at the start of the payment process. At the end of the payment process you will need to set up a password. You can also set up your account at any time via the ‘My Account’ button at the top of the page.

In the payment process, I entered my email but on the next page I realised I didn’t have a password. What do I do next?

We may have your email address in the system as you have signed up for a newsletter but you have not created an account, so therefore you will not have a password. If you click ‘Send me a link to log on’ then you will receive an email link that will take you through the payment process and invite you to create a password at the end of the process. You could also choose to create an account (click on ‘My Account’ at the top right of the home page and follow instructions) and then return to pay for your Basket contents when you have an account password.

I previously signed up for a Classical Club concert but my password isn’t working, what do I do?

We have recently updated our box office system, so your Classical Club password is no longer valid, but your email address will be recognised if you also signed up to receive our newsletter. Please reset your password via the ‘My Account’ button at the top of the home page

I added my Gift Voucher when I was in the ‘Basket’ screen but it didn’t work. What do I do now?

If you are trying to redeem a Gift Voucher rather than a Discount Code, then you will need to add it later at the appropriate point in the ‘checkout’ process rather than in the ‘basket’. Look for the prompt to enter your Gift Voucher code.

I got through to the checkout, but before paying I realised that I had forgotten to add my Discount Code. What do I do now?

Click on the ‘basket’ button at the top of the home page to return to the basket and add in your Discount Code into the field, and click ‘Apply Code’. You will then be taken through the payment process again with the appropriate discount added.

I click ‘Confirm Order’ and nothing happens.

You will need to check the box to agree to our terms and conditions before your payment can be processed.
