Shambhala; Stop Cashless Only Payments.
Repeal cashless only payments.
Why is this important?
Shambhalas last minute decision to go cashless impacts the community for a myriad of reasons.
The most egregious of which is changing the terms under which we bought tickets to this event.
It limits our accessibility to essential goods and services ie; Food / Beverages / Ice etc ...
It also limits vendors livelihoods by forcing them to take one less form of payment and giving them little time to prepare for a sudden change.
Shambhala music festival has offered little to no information about security measure for they're RFD bracelets and has not answered questions about refunding remaining funds on said pre-loaded bracelet making this a blatant money grab.
With Shambhalas recent infractions / fines from the BC Ministry of Transportation as well as WORKSAFEBC it is well within reason to assume that the "better business bureau" and "ombudsman" would be willing to look into this forced change.
The links to both of which are below.
