Just to get in or to bring alcohol in? I went when I was 15; I didn't realise there was an age restriction...?

Nope

[UndergroundSound]

Yeah you’ll be fine just getting in without ID

Festival Republic's official stance on this is anyone 15 and under must be with someone over 18. However, I look really young and in the 7 years I've been going I've never been ID'd when walking in and out of the festival unless I've had alcohol with me.

its just your luck but if it does happen ' things can get very complicated '

One of my Team had her 15 year old daughter with her but on one day she had to work
but arranged for some Adults to look after her.

Now we don't know what happened because we we working in the Crew Camp but somehow
her daughter got separated so she tried to walk in to the arena on her own and was pulled up.

Not only was she not allowed in # they would not let her go #

her Mother was called up and was told ' she had to get down to a certain office to pick up her daughter '

its unclear if that is standard policy or its because her Mother was working there.
