    Buying Additional Tickets When You Already Have One

    If you already hold a ticket for an event, you can still purchase additional tickets for other participants. During checkout, enter the other participant's details (name, email, etc.) and the system will allow the purchase to go through. You'll see a confirmation warning reminding you that you already have a ticket — simply confirm to proceed.

    Note: The system will only block a purchase if you are trying to buy the exact same ticket type for yourself again. Purchases for other people are always allowed.
