Doors, age limits and arriving late
Doors open before the show starts; the age limit is on the event page; late arrivals enter at a suitable break.
Updated 25 October 2026
Doors
The event page shows two times: doors, when the venue starts letting people in, and the start of the show. Arrive close to doors time, especially at general admission shows, where the first to come stand closest.
Age limits
Each show states its age limit on the event page: all ages, 14+ with an adult, 16+, 18+ and so on. The venue checks photo ID at the door for age limits and refuses entry without refund when the limit is not met. Babies and children need a ticket unless the page says otherwise.
Arriving late
Entry after the show has started may be held until a suitable break, at stand-up comedy and theatre shows in particular. Late entry cannot be guaranteed.
Leaving and coming back
Most venues do not allow re-entry once your ticket is scanned. Ask the staff before you step out.
