Harry Styles fan with a disability paid for reserved seats, but saw nothing. What are your rights when buying event tickets?

Norah never saw Harry Styles on stage, and could only see the screen if she stood on her tip-toes – which she is unable to do for long because of her disability.  (Supplied: Norah Sweeney)
