Guardianship Policy
Guardianship Policy & Guardianship Identification:
Patrons under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an over 25 at the ratio of two under 18s to one over 25. There are two age-identifying wristbands; one for children 12 and under and one for 13-17 year olds. There will be a full I.D. operation in place at the gates. Guardianship checks will also be performed at the gates. All those attending with under 18 wristbands will be issued a plain white wristband and guardians will be asked to write their contact details on the inside of this wristband to facilitate safeguarding whilst at the festival.
Keep an eye out for our Guardianship Ambassadors in purple hi-vis at the gates and roaming the festival site.
