////////// Insomniac events has announced they will be introducing the 18 and over policy at all their events.  The idea of 18+ events is not unusual and actually most festivals in the UK are 18+. The recent change probably was set off by the recent crowd control fiasco at the Electric Daisy Carnival on Saturday. I think I just saw the price for fake IDs go up!

Effective immediately, Insomniac has also established an “18 and older” policy for all of the company’s dance music festivals until such time as Insomniac implements IAG’s recommended standard operating procedures. Insomniac has purchased handheld ID scanners, which will be used at all future “18 and older” Insomniac events. Insomniac will refund the full ticket price to anyone under the age of 18 who has already purchased tickets to upcoming Insomniac dance music festivals. Ticketholders under the age of 18 can send an email to refunds@insomniac.com detailing their name, phone number and the name of the event and outlet where they bought the ticket (e.g. Ticketmaster, GrooveTickets, or retail store).
