All under 18s attending the festival must be accompanied by a responsible adult aged 21 or over for the duration of their visit – weekend or day.

We operate a policy of one Adult for every two Young Adults or Teens.

Each named ticket holder will need to show ID if asked by security personal on arrival. If you cannot produce ID, you may not gain entry to the festival.

Although we issue Under 18 wristbands to anyone under the age of 18, we continue to operate Challenge 25 at our bars and reserve the right to refuse service of alcohol to anyone unable to show a valid photo ID.
