    Does anyone know if they are strict with ID at Body and Soul and Holi Festival Of Colours?
    I don't exactly want to spend €150 on a Body and Soul ticket only to be turned away. I'll be 17 going with friends of 17/18. All of us underage will be borrowing age cards. Do they usually examine the ID fairly thoroughly? Are they likely to let you in once you have some sort of ID?

    Yes, they're extremely strict on i.d. at most festivals but particularly Body and Soul, if I was you I'd wait until you were at least the legal age but preferably over 25.

    I never bother bringing Id to festivals its only another thing to lose. Im 26 but would be considered fairly baby faced (or blessed with boyish good looks as I like to say). Was asked once at a festival this summer. Just shrugged and said I didn't bring it he just waved me through anyway.

    Why do you say over 25?

    Thanks for the reply, that's reassuring to hear. I'm going to chance it anyway :)

    Yeah I can't imagine them refusing entry to someone who has a ticket but I suppose it depends on who you're dealing with. Hopefully at body and soul they'd be more concerned with the ones sneaking in.
