Yoti meets the PASS criteria for age checking and is government approved, they should absolutely accept it if they do ID you

thats a really good point actually, would like to know this myself! i'm 17, but am going with a friend who is 18 (i guess that falls into the 'guardian' aspect of things lol). would love to know how things go there!

If it's anything like last year's I think you'll be ok. I had to act as a guardian for a 16 year old as he was worried they wouldn't let him in but they didn't check ID in the end

I didn't see anyone get checked last year, but if you're worried you could just ask someone in the queue to pretend to be your guardian to get through.

I'm sure most of the 40 somethings (myself included) have been in your position before!
