Code of conduct
Sole DXB is committed to providing a friendly, safe, and harassment-free environment for everyone.
We want to make sure you enjoy the festival in a safe and respectful way. Cooperation from all, including our crew, volunteers, security, partners, freelancers, and performers, is essential.
Anyone who violates this Code of Conduct will be asked to leave.
Our expectations
- Be kind
- Be respectful
- Be mindful
- Respect personal space
- No harassment of others
Any form of written, verbal, or physical abuse, such as unwanted or unwelcome sexual comments, intimidation, or inappropriate contact is not tolerated. The same applies to encouraging or supporting such behaviour.
Getting help and reporting
We experience the festival together, and we ask everyone to look out for one another. If you experience or witness a violation of this Code of Conduct, feel unsafe, or see someone being harassed, please check in with them or contact festival staff, security, or our social safety team immediately.
A dedicated, private space is available on-site, where our social safety team can have a confidential chat so you can share your experience (anonymously if you wish) and get the support you need. You can also use this space to take a moment to rest. Our staff can guide you there or accompany you.
While immediate reporting helps us act faster, we understand this isn’t always possible for many reasons. So you can also submit a report after the event. Please note it may take a few working days for our team to respond. When dealing with reports, our top priority is ensuring the affected person feels safe and supported.
If anyone engages in inappropriate, harassing, abusive, or destructive behaviour or language, we retain the right to take any necessary action to maintain a safe environment. Violators may be removed without refund and may be reported to the authorities.
We reserve the right to deny entry to anyone who endangers the safety or inclusion of others. All reported incidents are handled with care and confidentiality, and we only proceed with the consent of the affected person.
