Refund Policy for Individual Event Purchases

If you purchased a registration for a single event (rather than a Series Pass), you may receive a Full Refund if you request it more than 24 hours prior to the event’s start. Requests must be made by email (listed below).

Canceling your registration less than 24 hours before the event starts will make you eligible for credit (either on your account or as a PRG Gift Card) for any PRG Service in the future.

Exception: Canceling your registration prior to the start of an event for reasons related to Covid safety (e.g. you become ill, or suspect you may have had contact with someone who has Covid, or you have such concerns for someone in your household, etc.) will make you eligible for a Full Refund regardless of the 24 hour period described above.

Refund Policy for Series Passes

Series Passes are Fully Refundable up to 24 hours prior to the first Burn Series event you are registered to attend.

If you want to cancel a Series Pass less than 24 hours before the first event you are registered to attend, you will be eligible for a credit (either on your account or as a PRG Gift Card) for any PRG Service in the future.

Exceptions: Canceling your Series Pass prior to the start of the first event you are registered to attend for reasons related to Covid safety (e.g. you become ill, or suspect you may have had contact with someone who has Covid, or you have such concerns for someone in your household, etc.) will make you eligible for a Full Refund regardless of the 24 hour period described above. In addition, after you have attended one or more Burn events, should you wish to cancel your Series Pass for Covid-related reasons, you will be eligible for a pro-rated refund on the remainder of your pass (which will be equal to Full Series Pass Cost minus the standard cost ($59.95) of each event you actually attended.

Please note: If you cancel a Series Pass and decide you wish to attend a future 2024-25 Burn Series event anyway, you will be charged the non-discounted rate for any such event you register for. In other words, a Series Pass cannot be reactivated once canceled.

To request a refund, please email us at comps@philarockgym.com.

The Burn Bouldering Series consists of seven events across three Regions. Four events at PRG locations – the Midnight Burn, the Winter Burn, the Heart Burn, and the Final Burn. Two events at Inner Peaks locations – The Knight Burn and the Royal Burn. One event at Hudson Boulders.

All seven events are open events for all categories. Competitors in each event will not only vie to win each comp, but also to win the Overall Burn Series, which will be selected in each category based on each competitor’s performance throughout the entire season!

To be eligible for an Overall Burn Series title and awards, a competitor must compete in the Final Burn and at least two other Burn Series events.

For more details please read our Burn Series Rules & Guidelines.
