Bacchanal Jamaica has announced that with immediate effect, patrons will be required to present valid identification at the entrance to Mas Camp when asked by officials in order to verify that all patrons entering the Mas Camp are 18 years old and over.
In making the announcement, the organisers said there was a large number of young teenagers on the opening night of Bacchanal's Mas Camp Fridaze, which had an overwhelming turnout. And, while they acknowledge the desire for teenagers to enjoy themselves in a safe environment, the increasing numbers will make it difficult for them to enforce their no-alcohol policy for minors at the bar.
Therefore, while they continue to review their systems to ensure that Bacchanal Jamaica can remain a family-inclusive event, they will now be enforcing an 18-and-over entry policy until further notice.
Bacchanal Jamaica further advised that because of the large turnout last week, it is urging its patrons to purchase tickets early from the ticket office at the Mas Camp, which will now be open from 11 a.m. on Fridays during the carnival season.
