  • 7: HEALTH, TRAVELS & ADDITIONAL POLICIES/GUIDELINES
    It is your responsibility to do what you can to minimise the risk of infecting others. The European Yoga Festival expects you to cancel your participation if you, close to the event (or during the event itself) know, or have a valid reason to believe, that you are carrying a contagious virus. We refer to strong symptoms of for example stomach flu, influenza or COVID-19 here, diseases that may cause an immediate health risk for other participants. Our recommendation is that you purchase refundable tickets for your travel to The European Yoga Festival. Under no circumstances, such as the event being cancelled, does The European Yoga Festival cover or reimburse any costs you may have for travels or insurance. If your journey here is cancelled or if you cannot join due to travel restrictions within France or internationally, the above policy still applies.
