CREW KIDS
Please would you ensure that anyone coming with your crew is aware that, if they are bringing any under 18 year olds, they have to be the parent or court appointed guardian of the children. Children without their parent will not be allowed on site.
At least one of the parents must also be properly registered on the House of Honey website where they can register their children in their records and buy them a kids crew ticket at £10 per child. Failure to do this will mean they will be paying full kids price at the gate. Please make sure that children are registered with their tickets paid for by 13th July
We do this to make sure that we have details of everyone attending on our system - and so that we can provide enough facilities
