Swing Toronto is dedicated to providing a harassment-free and inclusive event experience for everyone regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disabilities, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, age, religion, or other protected category. We do not tolerate harassment in any form. Swing Toronto takes violations of our policy seriously and will respond appropriately.
All participants of the Toronto Lindy Exchange Spectacular 2025 events must abide by the following policy:
Please remember that a person may decline a dance for any reason at any time.
Be respectful towards others on the dance floor. Treat everyone with respect. Participate while acknowledging that everyone deserves to be here — and each of us has the right to enjoy our experience without fear of harassment, discrimination, or condescension, whether blatant or via micro-aggressions. Jokes shouldn’t demean others. Consider what you are saying and how it would feel if it were said to or about you.
All participants of the Toronto Lindy Exchange Spectacular 2025 events must abide by the following policy:
Speak up if you see or hear something.

If a participant engages in harassing or uncomfortable behaviour, the event organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning or expelling the offender from the event with no refund.

This policy extends to all attendees, partners, sponsors, volunteers, event staff, etc. Swing Toronto reserves the right to refuse admittance to, or remove any person from, any of our hosted events (including future events) at any time in its sole discretion. This includes, but is not limited to, attendees behaving in a disorderly manner or failing to comply with this policy, and the terms and conditions herein. If a participant engages in harassing or uncomfortable behaviour, the event organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning or expelling the offender from the event with no refund.
Our zero tolerance policy means that we will look into and review every allegation of violation of our TLX 2025 Code of Conduct and respond appropriately. Please note, while we take all concerns raised seriously, we will use our discretion as to determining when and how to follow up on reported incidents, and may decline to take any further action and/or may direct the participant to other resources for resolution.
Event staff will be happy to assist those experiencing discomfort or harassment to feel safe for the duration of the event.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to us through our TLX contact form, or in-person with one of our staff while at a TLX event.
