Third Party Privacy Policies
ASSUMPTION OF ALL RISKS
WHILE ATTENDING PAELLAFEST, YOU WILL BE EXPOSED TO MANY PEOPLE, AND AN INHERENT RISK OF EXPOSURE TO COMMUNICABLE DISEASE OR ILLNESS, SUCH AS COVID-19, EXISTS IN ANY PUBLIC PLACE WHERE PEOPLE ARE PRESENT. Each Holder voluntarily assumes all risks, hazards, and dangers incidental to the event for which the ticket is issued (“Event”), whether occurring prior to, during or after the Event, including but not limited to those of communicable disease. Holder hereby voluntarily and expressly agrees to release Festival Organizers, including FIU, SGWS, and each of these two separate legal entities’ respective officers, directors, owners, affiliates, employees and agents (collectively, “Organizer Representatives”) acting by and through them, from any claim arising from or relating to the Event. Holder expressly agrees to INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS the Festival, its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents, and representatives from any and all claims, demands, actions, and costs which might arise out of Holder’s participation in PaellaFest, even though such claims, demands, actions, and costs may have been caused by the negligence of the Festival, its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents, and representatives. PaellaFest organizers are not responsible for lost or stolen articles at the event.
Drinking policy
As responsible members of the community, PaellaFest Organizers recognize the concern about drinking and driving, and its policy is to encourage responsible consumption of products at the event. Attendees who consume alcoholic beverages must do so in a responsible manner. If Holder believes that his/her driving ability may be impaired or that Holder cannot safely operate a motor vehicle, please speak with a Festival representative who will assist in securing transportation (at Holder’s cost) to Holder’s destination point. Due to the sheer number of Event attendees, neither PaellaFest Organizers nor the representatives of any Event venue can ensure that all attendees who intend to drive are capable of driving. Accordingly, Holder agrees to release, indemnify, and hold harmless Organizer Representatives and the Event venue, as appropriate, from any liability related thereto.
weapons-free policy
*This is for Florida specifically
Possession of any dangerous article, including but not limited to, firearms, destructive devices, explosives, slingshots, weapons, tear gas guns, electric weapons or devices, and fireworks, is expressly prohibited at PaellaFest in accordance with Florida Statutes Section 790.115, except as provided by Florida law. Holder agrees that this policy is in force, and agrees to comply with the policy, regardless of whether signs prohibiting weapons are posted on the premises of any official PaellaFest Event.
