How We PRice Our Tickets
The first time you do Curiosity, you buy a ticket which includes the workshop, the Play-Space and the Sunday Session. Early 'round one' tickets are $200 ($170 concession); most tickets are 'round two' at $230 ($200 Concession). Last minute 'round three' tickets, if available, are $270 ($240). This system is to encourage you to book in early, and assist us with planning.
After your first Curiosity, you can attend the Play-Space as often as you want (and are encouraged to also attend the Sunday Sessions for free, since they're such an important part of the community and your learning). The base non-concession price for just the Play-Space (once you've already done one previously) is $55 ($45 concession) - or more, if you buy late.
Please note that almost all workshops sell out in advance, generally by a week or two. Some ticket types sell out as much as six months in advance. So our advice is to book your ticket as soon as you know that Curiosity is something you'd like to experience.

a note on gender balance
Curiosity is a welcoming space of less common gender and sexual identities. It is a space for all people, and one of its strengths is that a diversity of people can enjoy being in the same space together. Both mainstream and less mainstream identities benefit from this exchange.
It may seem strange at first, but when you book into the workshop, you will be asked to choose your ticket from "female identified", "male identified", or "non-binary gender" options. The only reason we do this is because Curiosity works better when there's a good diversity of people present. We acknowledge that while we've done our best, it's a very crude system. Please note that the workshop does NOT assume heterosexuality, nor is there any gendered content (such as concepts of masculine / feminine); it is congruently welcoming of you, whatever your identity or orientation.
There are also tickets for "couples, triads, etc", which is only there to give us an indication of how many people are planning to work mostly just with each other in pair-work exercises during the workshop. Buy two of these for a couple, three if you're coming through as a triad, etc.
Discount positions...
We recognise that less common gender / sexual identities are statistically less likely to have a high income. We also recognise that a wealth of information and best practice has been developed by queer, trans, and related communities, that is in turn of benefit to more mainstream identities. Therefore, if you feel that your income generating capacity has been impacted on by your gender or sexual identity, you may contact us for a significantly discounted workshop position; a limited number are available.
A number of paid "helper" roles exist at the Play-Space for people that have done Curiosity previously, whereby a couple of hours of work are exchanged for a refund of the Play-Space ticket. There is also a "Curious Again" ticket for people that want to do the workshop again.

TICKETS, LOGISTICS, LATE POLICY:
Tickets are released in ‘rounds’, where ‘round one’ tickets are cheaper, to encourage you to book in early. There is no other difference between the ‘rounds’ of tickets.
For this workshop, tickets range in price from $200 to $270 (see 'How We Price Our Tickets' above).
It is never possible to buy tickets on the door, nor by paying with cash. See our FAQ for more information on this.
Unless otherwise stated, the workshop will start at the advertised time, and doors will be locked ten minutes later. This is because late arrivals interrupt the dynamic of the group, and will miss crucial safety information.
