Code of Conduct.
We are dedicated to providing a safe and comfortable event experience for everyone regardless of their gender, age, sexual orientation, dis/ability, body size, ethnicity, or religion (or lack thereof). We expect your collaboration.
Some people follow, some people lead, and some people do both; keep that in mind and respect their choice.
Ask for verbal consent: “Would you like to dance?” “Would you like to have another dance?”
Ask as many people as you’d like to dance! If they refuse, be gracious; it is their right to say no, and yours too. You don’t need to explain your refusal.
Even if you’ve been given consent before, ask every time. Use your words.
Respect the bodies and persons of other people: do not touch someone without asking permission, do not touch anyone inappropriately, and stop if someone asks you to.
If someone lets you know, verbally or non-verbally, that they are feeling uncomfortable, address your behaviour, apologize sincerely, and make a change immediately.
Have fun, make friends. Be supportive and respectful of each other, and keep each other safe.
If you experience anything that you want to report or talk about, please talk to any of the team members or contact the security responsible.
