ABOUT


#DISTRICT, Global Street Festival, in association with Gauteng Tourism.


Welcome to #DISTRICT, a Global Street Festival taking place in Newtown, 23 MARCH 2019, this year themed THE WOMAN.


Two Stages, three Festival Clubs, The Food and Wine Theatre, The Global Cinema, one Theatre and Arts Exhibitions...In many ways, #DISTRICT is like loads of different festivals converging on the same urban landscape for one weekend. Each area of the Festival has its own character, its own loyal fans and its own special attractions.


While everyone will no doubt have their favourite Festival spot, we heartily recommend the "Tapas Experience" – trying a little bit of lots of different things. Because while the Main Stage will always provide the Festival’s most high profile attractions, a lot of the best experiences are to be found out on the outskirts, off the beaten track and where you least expect them.


But, if in doubt, just wander…

Your festival ticket provides access to all stages, festival clubs, cinema, exhibitions and theatre, just book!

How We Use Your Information & Why

This section explains how we use your information and the legal basis on which we use it.

  1. For the performance of our contract with you

We use your information when you enter into a contract with us (for example to buy merchandise or a ticket) so we can:

  • process your order
  • take payment, and
  • provide you with customer support.
  1. For our legitimate business interests
  • To conduct market research and analysis which helps improve and customise our products and services.  
  • For our marketing purposes, unless your consent is required for such marketing (see section 3 below).
  • To send you customer service emails including booking confirmations and event reminders.
  • To prevent or detect unlawful behaviour, to protect or enforce our legal rights or as otherwise permitted by law.  For example, making sure tickets get into the hands of real fans.  As such, we may use your information to prevent ticket touting, misuse of our intellectual property (e.g. our or our Event Partner's brands), fraud, or other crimes.
  • To create a profile about you to help us personalise our services to you. For example, if you purchase tickets to pop events and you have consented to our marketing, we will inform you about other pop events we think you might be interested in. 
  • About your personalisation settings.

We can give you more of what you want when we know you better. To make sure our messages and website are relevant to you, we create a user profile with the information we know about you and how you use our services.

  • How to turn off personalisation.

Simply turn off “Allow personalisation” in your account settings. We’ll stop any personalisation and only use your data for essential services, such as screening for fraud. 

  • What happens if you turn off personalisation?

We will no longer use your data to determine what you might be interested in. This means you won’t get any personal recommendations and any newsletters you’ve subscribed to will be generic (although if you’ve asked to receive alerts about specific artists or venues, you’ll still receive these).  

We will still perform profiling activities where we need to do so to deliver our services to you, for example for fraud screening purposes and where you specifically request we do so such as by favouriting n artist.

  • Is turning off personalisation the same as turning off cookies?

No, they’re separate. To control your cookies settings, you can use our cookies consent tool.

  • To ensure the security of our and our Event Partners’ operations.

Where you’ve given your consent

  • To contact you with information or offers regarding our upcoming events, products or services – this may be via email, via push and web notifications, via SMS, or social media platforms.  You can change your marketing preferences at any time, see “Your choices and rights” section below.
  • To provide you with location based services – like through our festival apps which allow you to see yourself on the map so we can use your location to send you push notifications about what’s going on around you.
  • To conduct crowd management analytics – some of our apps use crowd management software so we can see how many people are at a particular stage, or when the busiest times at the bars are.  This helps us more efficiently allocate our resources. We turn this on shortly before the festival or event, and turn it off shortly after so we’re not tracking devices when we don’t need to.
  • To deliver tailored advertising and marketing communications on our websites and apps
  • To process your health data to meet your accessibility requirements, where specifically required and explicit consent is provided.
