Japan Fiesta Artist Alley Registration Terms and Conditions
By registering for a Japan Fiesta Artist Alley, you are agreeing to abide by all these Terms and Conditions.
A Japan Fiesta Artist Alley is for local indie artists who want to sell their own creations such as art prints, charms, crafts, etc. AI-generated artworks and commercial goods are strictly prohibited. If you want to sell commercial items please book a commercial booth. The Japan Fiesta Committee reserves the right to require immediate removal of items from the event, at its discretion, if they appear to be AI-generated artworks, commercial goods or illegal items.
Japan Fiesta is a family-friendly event. Adult items are allowed providing those items do not breach NZ law or Censorship standards. You must ensure your displayed work is suitable for all ages.
Please keep your area as clean and tidy as possible. Be mindful of your neighbour artists. Abusive or violent behaviour shall not be tolerated.
Please do not place items in front of, or otherwise block, the fire exits. Weapons, dangerous goods, and non-service animals are prohibited.
Any damage done by you to the table, table space and the venue during Japan Fiesta, any associated repair costs, and consequential financial loss to the venue management/Japan Fiesta NZ Committee, are your responsibility.
Drugs, alcohol, smoking and vaping are all forbidden at the venue at all times. Absolutely no flames, naked or contained, are allowed. In case of fire, evacuation should be commenced. Please exit the building immediately using the nearest Fire Exit, and/or follow the fire warden’s and security staff’s instructions.
Make sure your table set-up doesn’t raise any health and safety issues. As a requirement of entry to Japan Fiesta, all artists and associates must have read and understood the ‘Japan Fiesta Health and Safety Plan’ which shall be provided at least one month before Japan Fiesta.
While care is taken to keep artists and their property safe, the Japan Fiesta Committee takes no responsibility for lost or stolen property. Any transactions made between Artists and Customers are entirely the responsibility of said parties, not the Japan Fiesta NZ Committee.
Breaches of the above requirements may result in an Artist’s Registration being cancelled. If the Japan Fiesta NZ Committee cancels the Artist’s Registration under this clause it shall not be liable to pay the Artist any compensation for loss or damage and will have no further legal obligations with respect to the Artist.
