The German Civil Law Code (BGB) puts parents under the obligation to care for the well-being of their under-aged children (under 18 years of age). For children, under 16 years in particular, a music festival could cause immense physical and mental stress, so we cannot speak out a general recommendation for children to attend. Personal care regulations \u2013 under consideration of the German Youth Protection Law \u2013 leave the final decision to the parents, whether to allow their children to participate in public music events (including the arrival to and the presence at the venue).<\/p>\n

Unfortunately we noticed an increased number of even smallest children and babys in carriages being taken to the festival. Many parents already protect their children with noise protection or by keeping them in the back area of the venue but not all of them. Therfore we needed to adjust our admittance rules. Since 2014, the minimum age for children is set to 6 years or older.<\/b> In the interest of your children we ask all parents who are affected by this measure for their understanding.<\/p>\n

Children under 16 years<\/b> of age may only attend public music events while they are accompanied either by their parents or an adult person, authorized by the parents in written form, to supervise their personal well-being at all times.<\/p>\n

Children under 16 years<\/b> of age may only attend public music events in company either of their parents or an adult person, authorized by the parents in written form, to supervise their personal well-being at all times.<\/p>\n

Adolescents above 16 and under 18 years<\/b> of age are allowed to attend music events on their own. However, they must leave the venue until 12pm at latest. Staying at the venue after 12pm again requires company by their parents or another adult person, authorized by the parents in written form, to supervise their personal well-being at all times.<\/p>\n

The form for transferring the supervising authority can be found here<\/a>, it has to be filled out completely and has to be signed by the parents themselves! The person, allowed to accompany and watch over the child, needs to have the form available at all times during the event and can be asked to prove her\/his identity with a valid id-card! Adolescents above 16 years are also asked to keep their id-card\/passport ready for an age check. Alongside these rules, regulating the attendance of the event, public restrictions concerning alcohol and tobacco-products need to be followed at any time. In case of a scrutiny we reserve the right to immediately remove smoking or drunken juveniles under 18 years of age from the venue.<\/p>\n

Admission of children from 6 to 12 years of age<\/b>
\nAt our festival kids from the age of 6 years up to 12 years will be admitted for free. Of course they have to be accompanied by their at least one of their parents or a legal guardian.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1712","info","type-info","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nYouth protection - Amphi Festival 2026 - Tanzbrunnen Cologne<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The German Civil Law Code (BGB) puts parents under the obligation to care for the well-being of their under-aged children (under 18 years of age).
