Juvy Rave Events

[iwishiwasonacruise]

Have any of your teenagers been to a Juvy event? They are raves for 14-17 year olds. My daughter will be just 14. Their insta page promises safety etc, but I'm just not sure.

She's been to plenty of gigs and stuff with me, but never just with friends, and not to a rave. I've never been to a rave, I'm more of a live band girl, so I'm not even sure what the vibe is like.

I'm also aware there is a big difference between just 14 yr olds and almost 18 year olds 😬 but I feel bad saying no if some other girls in her year are going.

I would take her and collect her. My brother lives in the area so I could hang about. Just would like to know a bit more about what these events are actually like. Any advice or experience please 🙏🏼

It will be mostly 14 year olds. Most kids 16 plus wouldn't be seen dead at one of these events so I wouldn't worry about that too much. In my experience the main issues arise on the way too and from the venue so if they are being dropped off and picked up I wouldn't worry too much. The events themselves are pretty heavily policed (not by actual police I could think of an alternative word for it).

Thanks so much for this input, very reassuring 👍🏼
