Safety & Wellbeing
If you have any questions or concerns before the night, please feel free to hit us up via email (hello @ buffevents . com).  And during the party you can talk with one of our roving team  (they will be wearing a lanyard),  or ask one of the lovely people working in the cloaking area, behind the bar, or one of the security team. We generally have a quiet space where you or someone who needs it can take time out.

Photography
Your privacy is very important to us. Our official photographer will take pictures of subjects who agree to them being published and we send these pictures for another round of approval to ticket holders before publishing them online.

If you subsequently change your mind and don’t want your picture featured,  please help us identify the picture and we’ll be happy to un-publish it.

We don’t allow guests to take pictures and videos of others (except performers on stage) unless you’ve obtained the subject’s explicit consent.  Generally,  we respectfully ask patrons to keep phone activity to a minimum and instead enjoy the party!
