The Essentials

We welcome all ages to the festival. However, there are entry restrictions for under 16s and we do advise not bringing young children. All under 16s (15 years and under) must be accompanied by an adult ticket holder aged 18 or over who must remain on site throughout the weekend as the under 16-year-old's guardian. No unaccompanied under 16s are allowed on site. Under 13s (12 years and under) are admitted free but must be accompanied by a paying ticket-holder aged 18 or over at all times. ID may be required to prove Under 13's. It is the responsibility of the adult(s) to determine the correct ratio of supervising adults to under 18s, taking into account the age, needs and abilities of the children, the nature of the Event and any applicable guidelines. We do not act in any parental or supervisory capacity for under 18s on site. This does not affect our legal duties to any attendee in respect of, or obligation to comply with, any applicable laws including health and safety or licensing laws.

For information purposes only, age checks will also be carried out on the entrance gates.

Please note our policy has changed from Challenge 21 > Challenge 25.

Please bring ID if you look under 25 years old and remember that legally there is no automatic right to be served alcohol. Service is always at the discretion of the licensee for whatever reason they decide, and the licensee is under no obligation to explain the reason.

The following forms of identification are accepted:

A Passport (Not a photocopy)
Full Driving Licence or Provisional Licence
A Proof of Age Card bearing a PASS hologram
A Ministry of Defence identity card
A National identity card issued by an EU member state
Please bring the original document as you won’t be able to use a photocopied version. If you don’t have any of these, or don’t want to lose valuable documents on site, we suggest that you apply for a PASS approved ID, some of which are free to get.

Please note, your ID must be in date in order to be valid.

Young Children
Whilst we do allow under 13s to attend for free, we do suggest that this event is not suitable for young children. If you do want to bring children along we advise camping in one of the White Campsites which tend to be our quieter campsites.

On entering the event, children will be given paper wristbands which have space for you to write your telephone number (as a parent or guardian). We can use this as a primary contact to reunite you. Replacements can be picked up at the Welfare Tents or info points.
