Parents remain responsible for their children at all times.
For families with younger children (8s and under) though all ages are welcome.
Adult only groups are not admitted .
A max of 3 children per adult in a family. If attending as a large party (more than two famillies) please ensure one adult to two children minimum.
If there are more than 4 adults per child in your group please email [email protected] with any questions for pre-approval before buying tickets.
The event will be busy with hundreds of people attending. The dancefloor is for adults and children to dance together.
Please be aware that events are standing/dancing with limited seating and events are busy with around 500 people at each party - which helps create the rave ambience.
Each event is stewarded and risk assessed in advance.
A licensed bar will be open during the event but no glass is permitted.
We may photograph or film small parts of the event and by entering you are giving your permission for these to be used for BFLF promotion purposes.
Please be aware that BFLF is designed to provide a family friendly, authentic club experience and is not a traditional children's party or disco. There is no kids music, nor games, nor DJ shout outs. The effect is to give families unity on the dancefloor - dancing together.
DJ lineups may be subject to unavoidable change.
Music is played at safe levels for everyone. BFLF sets and monitors the volume using World Health Organization guidelines - so that is it at a safe level for everyone, even the youngest babies, over the duration of the event. Though quieter than at adult events, it is still loud enough to feel like you are at a club. Most parents do not use ear defenders on their children but if yours are particularly sensitive to noise or if you want them to nap then you might want to consider it.
