Sign – In Policy

Any student with a valid Student Card and is a member of the QMU / GUU / an affiliated University or a Life Member need not sign in.

Any student who meets the above conditions may sign in up to FOUR (4) guests, providing that their guests are 18 or over and have valid proof of age.

Guests must print their name and address along with the student card holder’s details.

Any student signing in guests are reminded that they are responsible for their guest’s actions and as such are strongly urged only to sign in people known personally to them.

Queen Margaret Union members will be subject to disciplinary procedures should their guest(s) be in breach of QMU Bye-Laws.

Students who are members of other Unions may be subject to the disciplinary procedures of their own Union should their guests be found in breach of QMU Bye-Laws.

Live Music

For live music events held at the QMU the entry policy is slightly revised:

- For an 18+ show: All ticket holders must be 18 years of age or over, provide a valid form of identification and if not a student of a UK University be willing to sign a temporary membership form upon entering.

- For a 14+ show: Those ticket holders aged between 14 and 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult (18 years+) throughout the entire show. Those aged between 16-18 are not required to have an adult present but must be able to provide valid ID to prove their age when requested to do so.

N.b. All adults aged 18 and over who wish to be served alcohol at the bar during a 14+ show must collect a coloured wristband from a member of the Security team to do so. Those without will not be served.

The age requirements for all shows will be printed on the ticket or online purchase receipt. All additional queries should be directed to the point of purchase or the Promoter’s representative on the night.
