3.7.1 The access of minors between 14-18 years of age will be allowed only on the basis of a valid ticket, identity document and either accompanied by a parent or by presenting a completed parental consent form (which will have the content established by SAGA and which will be made available to those interested in the Guide section on the official website of SAGA) – the parental agreement must also be accompanied by a copy of the birth certificate or any other document
that proves that the person who completed and signed the parental contract is the parent of the minor in question.
3.7.2 Persons under the age of 18 who have acquired full legal capacity and are therefore considered to be of legal age, must prove this fact by any means of evidence (marriage certificate or final court decision); for these persons, it is no longer necessary to present the parental consent.

At the request of the persons responsible for security and monitoring, as well as the Organizer’s representatives, the companion is obliged to present documents (student card, passport or any other document containing the minor’s photo) certifying the age of the minor. Due to the very loud noise produced during the Festival, the Organizer does not recommend the presence of children under 7 years old at the Festival.
3.7.7 Minors will receive wristbands of a different color, which will allow them to be more easily identified.

The Visitor guarantees to SAGA that this person/these persons will fulfil these obligations. The transfer of an Admission Ticket, under the conditions mentioned above, automatically implies the acquisition by the new holder of all the rights and related obligations (including those stated in these general conditions).
4.4 If the Visitor does not fulfill his obligations under the 3.3 Clause presented in these general conditions, the Visitor will owe to SAGA a penalty immediately due and payable of €5,000.00 for each breach and €1,000.00 for every day that the breach continues, notwithstanding the right of SAGA to claim from the Visitor specific fulfillment and/or compensation for the loss suffered or still to be suffered.
