What to do if you're under 18?

[dancingBanana]

If you're maybe seventeen years old,you need a permission from your parents that you are allowed to be live on air in Wacken.
But what should be in this permission?
Is there a standard text to find anywhere?

if anyone knows

As long as you're over 16 there is no problem at all. (The usual age for this is 18 in Germany but Wacken seems to have some special agreement with the local authorities.)

Those under 16 must be accompanied by an adult (>18) and ought to have a piece of paper with them which includes their name, their parents' names, the name of their chaperon and a text that states that their parents allow them to be at the festival (including the exact dates) with the adult person and that this trustworthy person will keep an eye on the minor. Everybody sign this...and take copies of everybody's identity cards with you...that's it.
At least that's about the way it works in Germany.

I just wonder if this document must be in German if you're going to a German festival...

 

[Quark]

Why?

It's an international festival! As long as it's stated in English (or maybe French) it should be alright I reckon!

 

[Alrek]

I wouldn't worry too much, if the document is English-German bilingual (just use Babelfish) it would put that fear to rest, but just English should fly.

I've had some problems like this in the past, though not in Germany.
We just had a piece of paper sayinog this person [name] is accepted my my [name] parent(s) or legal guardian [name(s)] for this trip/purpose [dates].

Signed and dated.

Why?

It's an international festival! As long as it's stated in English (or maybe French) it should be alright I reckon!

Though for an international festival surprisngly many of the ppl that works there (mostly volounteers, but still) don't seem to speak a word of English.

Luckily I'm a master of the German language, and take good care not to insult anyone, so I'll do fine.

yeah!!!!!!!! sounds quite good
best version probably: let your parents sign an English version of this and let them sign a German version as well

 

[Quark]

If you take a combination of both translations, it'll be even better!!!
