Health & Safety Measures
Our priorities
Our upmost priority is to keep you and everybody safe. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we need to follow a number of regulations and restrictions from the side of the authorities to make this event happening and to keep you safe. Please note that we must insist that everybody is following the rules which we will need to apply.
Updates & information for attendees
Those regulations can be changed any time following the development of the pandemic, they can be released (hopefully), but they also might be tightened. We will send an update to all registered attendees a few days before the event per email. And of course the full list of regulations will be put up at the venue for everybody to be reminded at all times.
Changing partners
The pandemic situation has been worsening the past weeks, not only in Berlin, but everywhere. Note that one of the requirements of the authorities to cope with this situation imposed to us is that you will only dance with one partner during the entire weekend. We need your colaboration for this measure and we ask you to follow this rule at all times.
Measures & rules to follow
Not an event we used to have
We are sure that you are well aware that in the current situation such an event can only be done with a large number of safety regulations. Do not expect this to be an event as we were used to have before March 2020.
Health Questionaire
At the registration desk you will need to fill in a form with information regarding your health and your travel history for the last two weeks. Those forms will be kept a max of 4 weeks for the authorities and will be automatically deleted after 4 weeks.
Check In/Check Out
We will check you in and out every time you enter or leave the event by scanning your QR code to keep record of your attendance.
Contact tracing
We will ask you to download our unique mobile app, which we designed especially for this event, so you can track who you got in close contact with during the weekend. After every close contact please scan the QR code of your close contacts. This is voluntary but we believe that it is in the interest of everybody as it does support the contact tracing if needed.
Measuring your temperature
We will measure your temperature every time you enter the venue using contactless thermometers. No entrance granted with high temperature/fever. In case of high temperature you need to see a doctor and stay home.
