Wet'n'Wild New Year's Eve party organisers refuse to apologise saying revellers being refunded is enough Promoter Eric Woo pictured with an unknown woman on Facebook Source: Supplied ERIC WOO, one of the directors behind the cancelled Wet 'n' Wild New Years' Eve party, reckons the thousands of disappointed partygoers do not deserve an apology. "They have been refunded so that's it, goodbye," said Mr Woo, who is one of three directors of the promotions company One Cube Entertainment that was set up in September to launch the event. But thousands of $110 to $200 hard copy tickets worth over $300,000 that were sold through small promoters have not yet been refunded. Fair Trading investigators are watching closely to ensure a single mobile phone hotline, set up by the young promoters, works when it goes live at 11am tomorrow. Almost 9000 partygoers were given just six hours' notice that the New Year's Eve event in western Sydney had been cancelled because of transport safety concerns.

Nikola Alavanja and Diego Tobar fled to Mr Alavanja's mum's while Mr Woo and a former director and shareholder, Ruchitha Perera, attempted to deal with the storm of outrage. Yesterday Mr Woo said: "We are not running away, we are not escaping, we are just not ready to say anything."

Comments about their next event at Soho in Potts Point last night (Sat) included: "Another desperate attempt at clinging on to what little credibility they have remaining after the NYE fiasco," from Tim Brooks. Deidre Warburton Curry wrote: "Bunch of useless idiots. How can you cancel an event on the day? Thousands of disappointed people. Not cool. Terrence Lowe warned: "Watch out it might get canned at the last minute like wet and wild." A spokesman for Wet 'n' Wild has repeatedly said that it raised issues over public transport arrangements with the boys and it was these concerns that finally prompted the late cancellation of the event. But the Sunday Telegraph understands that Fair Trading investigators will also be looking very closely at Wet 'n' Wild's involvement in the botched event at its theme park. "You can listen to Wet 'n' Wild, they can say what they want, it's up to people to decide what the truth is," said Mr Woo, without actually elaborating on it himself. Fair Trading Commissioner Rod Stowe said both Wet 'n' Wild and One Cube were being investigated but it was too early to speculate on possible offences and penalties. "What is already becoming apparent are some of the clear lessons for would be promoters of entertainment events of this scale," he said.

In an email to media outlets before the event Mr Tobar claimed "the production was fine, transport was sorted." But added that Wet 'n' Wild had demanded a $250,000 venue hire fee four days before the event. Wet 'n' wild said that money has been refunded on the condition it be used to refund ticket holders. On their website the One Cube promoters told hard copy ticket holders to return to their point of purchase for a refund.
