Our approach

Accessibility is an ongoing effort, not a finished state. We are actively working to make C-Tribe Festival more accessible each year and welcome feedback on where we fall short. Our goal is to reduce barriers to participation across our digital platforms and in-person events.

Digital accessibility

We are working toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level. This is a target we measure against, not a claim of full compliance. Specific steps we have taken on this website include:

Semantic HTML structure with heading hierarchy, landmark regions, and meaningful link text.
Alt text on images. Decorative images are marked as such so screen readers skip them.
Colour contrast ratios that meet or exceed WCAG AA minimums for body text and interactive elements.
Keyboard-navigable menus, buttons, and form controls.
Responsive layouts that work across screen sizes without horizontal scrolling.
Reduced-motion support. Animations respect the prefers-reduced-motion browser setting.

If you encounter a page or feature that does not work with your assistive technology, please let us know. We treat those reports as bugs and prioritize them.

Event accessibility

Festival venues are selected with accessibility in mind, but every venue has different capabilities. Rather than make blanket promises about features that depend on the specific location, we ask attendees to tell us what they need so we can plan ahead.

When you purchase a pass or register for an event, you can include accommodation requests. We review each request individually and will follow up directly to confirm what we can arrange. The earlier we hear from you, the more we can do.

Examples of accommodations we have arranged or can work toward depending on venue and event format:

Wheelchair-accessible seating and pathways within the venue.
Reserved seating near the front for attendees with low vision or hearing loss.
Advance copies of presentation slides or materials on request.
Quiet or low-stimulation areas during multi-day programming.
Service animals welcome at all C-Tribe events.

We cannot guarantee every accommodation at every venue, but we will be transparent about what is and is not possible once we confirm the details.

Communication & content

Event communications are sent in plain-text and HTML email formats.
Social media posts include image descriptions where the platform supports them.
Video content published by C-Tribe includes captions or transcripts where feasible.

Feedback & accommodation requests

For accessibility questions, accommodation requests, or to report a barrier you have encountered, contact us at support@ctribefestival.com. Include as much detail as possible about the page, event, or task you need help with. We aim to respond within two business days.

You can also reach us through the contact page or by phone at 780-691-1778.
