In registering for DUF 2022 you agree to abide by the festival COVID-19 Safety Policy. In the context of the COVID‑19 pandemic, there is no “zero risk” when it comes to any kind of gathering – especially events that bring groups of people together. Regardless of the size of the event, you are at risk from COVID‑19 whenever you get together with people. The virus that causes COVID‑19 spreads easily indoors, especially in poorly ventilated settings.
For this reason, DUF 2022 is requiring ALL Festival Staff and Mercado Vendors to be fully vaccinated. We are requesting that all participants and guests that are eligible to receive the vaccine, to be fully vaccinated. Participants who are not yet eligible for the vaccine due to their age, must show proof of a negative result on the COVID test 72 hours prior to the event. The use of a properly fitted face mask will be strictly enforced within the classroom and within the campus outdoor quad and hallways. Respite areas will be available for groups to book around the perimeter of the campus. These areas will be limited to two, ten foot pop-up canopies or equivalent.
If you don’t feel well or show any symptoms of COVID‑19, stay home.
If you choose to attend the festival, practice prevention measures, regardless of your COVID‑19 vaccination status:
- socially distance
- wear a mask
- avoid crowded or poorly ventilated areas
- cover coughs and sneezes with bent elbow or tissues
- clean your hands frequently
These measures will protect you and other festival participants around you. In the event that the Danzantes Unidos Festival DUF 2022 determines that you have violated this policy, DUF 2022 has the right to cancel your participation with no refund of registration fee.
By registering for a paid or complimentary DUF 2022 badge you agree not to sell, trade, transfer or share your comp code, QR code confirmation, or badge. In the event that the Danzantes Unidos Festival DUF 2022 determines that you have violated this policy, DUF 2022 has the right to cancel your badge(s) and keep any money paid by you. Registration confirmations and/or badges that have been sold or provided by anyone other than DUF 2022 will not be honored by DUF 2022. All badges are the property of DUF 2022 and must be relinquished to DUF 2022 upon request.
Wood Floors
In order to produce the 65+ DUF workshops required to accommodate DUF participants, it is necessary to contract with sites that offer both carpeted and tiled floors. Wooden flooring will be installed in movement session spaces which currently have carpeting. Logistically, due to the immense scope of magnitude of this event, wooden flooring is not available in classrooms which currently have a hard surface such as tile. Classroom spaces are randomly assigned to workshops based on the needs of the genre and size of the class and DU cannot guarantee who will be assigned to what spaces. Your registration indicates that you are aware of our policy and accept these conditions.
DUF Swag
In past years we have been able to ‘gift’ a festival t-shirt to early registrants as a thank you. Danzantes Unidos is currently in recovery mode and we will not be able to continue this free giveaway in 2022. However, we will make the shirt available for REGISTRANTS ONLY at the discounted price of $10 until January 15, 2022. All others may purchase their shirt in the DUF Tienda for $20.
