We are building a festival city together, creating a very special community. A community that must be protected. We have formulated some dogmas for the community:
Respect the space
You are co-creating the unique orange feeling. It looks like a dream come true. Enjoy the freedom; forget the humdrum of everyday life and explore boundaries but remember to respect each other and cherish the community.
Respect each other
You will meet people with values, norms, and prerequisites for participating that are different from your own. No matter who you meet on your way, be respectful of them and their boundaries. Roskilde Festival’s community is openness, curiosity and caring across different points of view.
In case of a disturbance
Some people will always find it difficult to follow these dogmas, and this is why you are an important part of contributing to the community by standing up against disrespectful behaviour towards others or by calling for help.
In case of a disturbance, your safety comes first. After that comes the safety of your co-volunteers and then the participants. You are expected to act, but not to bring yourself in harm's way.
We believe in the good in everyone, which is why we handle disturbances and conflicts by starting a conversation. Our Safety Hosts are trained to create “Safer Spaces” and know how to begin this conversation.
Sometimes, a conversation is not enough, and then Security will step in. Security is a third-party collaborator, and they are qualified to support our Safety Hosts.
In extreme cases, they can also take more severe actions by evicting festivalgoers. Security act on orders from the Emergency Services Office and can e.g. evict festivalgoers and volunteers after agreement with the Festival Operations Manager.
You must always respect the instructions of the Safety Hosts and Security.
