Music & Concert Venues
Music venues can face real time pressures when serving alcohol during intermissions, but it is important to maintain effective checks for under age drinkers
You need to take active steps to prevent young customers from accessing age restricted products. This includes creating an expectation of challenge for ID by displaying appropriate warning signage, being prepared for young customers by training your staff and checking that your age check systems are working.
How can the Age Check Certification Scheme help music and concert venues?
We test that age check systems work. We do this through audits, test purchasing and mystery shopping. We can provide the industry standard signage for all parts of the event and provide specialised training for full time and casual event staff.
Why do I have to get this done?
Local laws place obligations on music and concert venues to take steps to prevent the underage supply of age restricted goods. The penalties for failing to comply can be substantial including the forced closure of your business. You can find out more about the local laws that apply here.
What posters and materials do I need to be compliant?
You may be required to display certain posters or warnings in relation to particular products. This is most common for retailers or tobacco and alcohol. Our shop has all of the materials, posters, badges, signs and policies that you need to comply with local laws.
