I'm guessing this has something to do with all the 15-year-old girls who decide to wear miniskirts and little else at raves. Can't wait to see how this will be enforced.

Its very understandable for anyone who is underage and I understand the city's concerns and why it would be enforced.

It just kinda sucks for everyone who is of aged and it gets fucking hot in the venues!!!

It could lead to harassment and the City/Police, etc. are ultimately responsible for the public's safety.

How it would be enforced is simple? As the note mentions, anyone not abiding by the City's request, will be asked to leave by the Police or Security.

This dress code applies to both MLC and PNE parties - any event within the City of Vancouver operating limits.

Clubs don't run till 7AM hence ALL NIGHT implies in runs all night long. Clubs (for now) will not be effected.

There is only one LEGAL after hours venue (which has a separate operating license that is not classified as an all night dance event) and that is Gorg.

Yeah, something tells me this is just for anything licensed to be an all-hours event. So afterhours and illegal parties need not worry?

Having a dress code should be the least of an ILLEGAL/un-licensed after hours or party's concern. They would get broken up way before a dress code would be enforced.

Says you.

Been to plenty of unlicensed parties where the cops have shown up and done SFA. Usually because they aren't populated by kids. All cops really care about is teenagers on drugs and noise complaints. Selling the "private party" line to them is really just a matter of promoter preparedness.

lols - i want to make the jokes but i cant say i am surprised.

there is still the unenforced under/over 19 bylaw. and really for the best considering some girls dont seem to think it makes them a target.

really - it is a mature move by the city instead of saying no more all together.
