Code of Conduct

All attendees, speakers, sponsors, partners, exhibitors, volunteers and staff at The Coffee Village Festival are required to agree to and uphold this Code of Conduct. We are committed to enforcing this policy throughout the event and expect full cooperation from all participants.

The Coffee Village Festival is dedicated to providing a welcoming, safe and enjoyable experience for all — regardless of gender, gender identity or expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion (or lack thereof), or any other aspect of personal identity.

Harassment in any form will not be tolerated. Participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the event without a refund, at the discretion of the organizing team.

• Offensive or discriminatory verbal comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, race, ethnicity or religion.
• Display of sexual images or suggestive content in public spaces.
• Deliberate intimidation, stalking or following individuals without consent.
• Harassing or intrusive photography or audio/video recording.
• Sustained disruption of talks, performances, workshops or any scheduled festival activity.
• Inappropriate physical contact or unwelcome sexual attention.
• Encouraging, enabling or ignoring the harassment of others.

If someone asks you to stop any inappropriate behavior — you are expected to comply immediately.

• Avoid any use of sexualized images, promotional materials or language.
• Booth personnel must not wear sexually suggestive clothing or create a sexualized environment.
• Failure to comply may result in removal from the festival venue.

If you are being harassed, witness harassment or have any concerns, please contact a Coffee Village Festival staff member immediately. You can identify our team by their official festival badges labeled "CREW".

Our team will respond swiftly and discreetly. We are here to listen with respect and confidentiality, help you contact security or local law enforcement if needed, and provide support including safe accompaniment.

• Verbal or written warning.
• Removal from the venue without refund.
• Ban from future editions of the festival.
• Involvement of local authorities, depending on the incident.

This Code of Conduct applies to all festival spaces — indoor and outdoor venues, Roaster Village, talks and workshops, coffee competitions, social events and afterparties, and online platforms (social media, livestream chats, email communication).

The Coffee Village Festival celebrates diversity, creativity and community. We believe in the power of shared experiences over coffee — and we want everyone to feel respected, included and inspired.
