In reference to her photo ops and autograph pre-sales those will all automatically be refunded back in the form of payment used to purchase them. In regards to any of her VIP packs and upgrade packs, Ticketmaster will be refunding the upgraded portion of those packages. Your admission ticket portion will remain valid.
