Terms
Plain language, no legal boilerplate. What happened with weather, refunds, filming, and getting in.
Weather
Saturday, October 3, 2026 was rain or shine - we did not cancel for weather, and the parklet was open to the sky. The evening billed at Black Moon Public House next door was their room and their event, not a second ZAOstock stage.
Refunds
Ticket purchases are non-refundable. This is a free, all-ages festival - a paid ticket is a Chip in, Friend or Backer contribution to the event, not an admission fee, and admission itself never requires one. If something goes wrong with your purchase, email info@thezao.com and we'll sort it out.
Photography & filming
ZAOstock was photographed and filmed throughout the day, including drone footage, for the recap video, the livestream, and future promotion. By attending, you agreed that your likeness may appear in that footage. If you would rather not appear in the event video, email info@thezao.com.
Getting in
All ages, family-friendly. There was no crowd surfing, no mosh pit, no stage diving, no weapons. We reserved the right to refuse entry or ask someone to leave to keep the event safe for everyone else.
Questions
ZAOstock was a small, volunteer-run community event, not a company with a legal department - if anything here is unclear, email info@thezao.com and we'll answer directly. See also our privacy page for what we collect and how it's used.
