In our 14th edition, we amplify the voices who champion inclusivity in the events they build, with focus on:  How can we make an event theme, content, structure and concept more inclusive? Who have we forgotten to include? How do we redesign an existing event/platform to incorporate more inclusive mechanisms? Backstage Pass by Peatix is a community event for event organisers - exchange lessons, connect with people who enable events and grow as a group.

BSP Entry + Dialogue in the Dark ticket is exclusive to this edition of Backstage PassDialogue in the Dark was founded in Germany in 1988. Since it's opening, they have been presented in more than 30 countries and 130 cities all around the world. The concept of Dialogue in the Dark is simple, visitors are led by blind guides in groups through specially constructed dark rooms in which scent, sound, wind, temperature and texture convey the characteristics of daily environments – for example a park, a city or having a drink in a local stall. A reversal of roles is created: people who can see are taken out of their familiar environment. Blind people provide them with security and a sense of orientation by transmitting to them a world without pictures. The tour itself lasts 45 minutes but the effects can last a lifetime.BSP Entry + Dialogue in the Dark Tour tickets can be redeemed by reservation at least 2 days before your date of visit via email to bookings@did.my.All tickets are valid until 14 November 2019.
