Firstly, yes you and your son may get challenged on entry; have witnessed it myself. Secondly, by not buying a ticket for your son you are creating an awful lot of stress for yourself right up to the moment you reach the entry desk and with a reasonable prospect of rejection and at having to take your son home. Whence then you will presumably have to find someone to look after your son if you want to return to the fest. Worth the risk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus Gwertigan Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 The normal proof of ID may be asked. We used to use a copy of a birth cetfticate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faymondo Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Never got asked for ID when we took our 12 year old (13 in the August) but had it just in case. Depends who you get. Once had a girl ask if she could be our daughter on re-entry. I said you can be whoever you want but if I am asked I am saying I don't know you. She got in. Was well over 18 !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Wrong-Un Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 You risk being turned away without ID. I had to show ID for my (tall) 11 year old daughter this year. Photocopy of ID is stated as being acceptable for 12 and under. ID requirements for this, Challenge 21 etc. are specified on the Glastonbury website packing list page. https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/advice/packing-list/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShuMart Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 I cant imagine anyone at the gate saying that photoshopped copy isn't good enough, nobodys going to take an original to the festival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
