NIRVANA is not liable for natural wear, shedding, or damage that occurs during transport, fitting, or participation.

⸻

You agree to:

• Not initiate a chargeback or payment dispute with your financial institution for non-fraudulent transactions.

If a chargeback is filed and determined to be fraudulent or unjustified:

• The masquerader will be permanently banned from future NIRVANA events.

• NIRVANA reserves the right to pursue legal action and damages related to the chargeback.

⸻

8. Participation in carnival involves inherent risks, including but not limited to personal injury, property loss, or exposure to unpredictable circumstances.

By participating, you voluntarily assume all risks and agree to release, indemnify, and hold harmless NIRVANA, its affiliates, and staff from any claims or damages arising from participation.

⸻

9. NIRVANA is not responsible for cancellations or modifications due to events beyond its control (“Force Majeure Events”), including but not limited to natural disasters, extreme weather, acts of war, pandemics, or government restrictions.

• No refunds or compensation will be issued in such cases.

• NIRVANA will make reasonable efforts to adjust or reschedule, but alternative arrangements are not guaranteed.

• By registering, you waive any claim for refund or damages arising from Force Majeure Events.

10. NIRVANA enforces a zero-tolerance policy for violence, harassment, or misconduct. Any masquerader found in violation may be removed from the event without refund and banned from future participation.
