- OVER 18's VENUE
Forum Melbourne is an over 18’s venue. Being an over 18’s venue means no minors are allowed, not even with a guardian, and this includes babies.
For an over 18’s event, patrons must be able to present one of the following ID’s to gain entry: learner or driver’s license, passport, proof of age card, keypass. If patrons are unable to present a valid form of ID, we can not permit you entry to the venue, and on these grounds, we can not provide a refund for your tickets.
Occasionally an event will be an All Ages event and this will be clearly stated on the event page. When an event is All Ages, no pass outs are available and attendees aged 12 or under must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian with a valid ticket to the event.
