All children under the age of 11 must be accompanied by an adult. This means that adults will need to buy tickets too, exactly as if you were going to the cinema. We cannot take responsibility for unsupervised children so please don’t drop them off and leave.

Our age guidelines are usually based on the reading age of the book, but you know your kids much better than we do, so if you’re happy they’ll enjoy the event, we’re happy!

Doors to the venues open 20 minutes prior to the event starting. We know! Every event at Barnes is unmissable but we’d like to ask you not to book back to back events so you’re not arriving after the author has started their presentation.

Everyone is welcome at Barnes! Assistance animals too! All our venues are wheelchair accessible and if you can let us know you’re coming beforehand we can arrange priority seating for you. Email: info@barneskidslitfest.org

We’d never cancel an event or switch a venue unless it was absolutely necessary but our authors and artists are real people, just like us, and sometimes due to unforeseen circumstances we do need to cancel or substitute an event. For more details see our T&Cs https://www.barneskidslitfest.org/terms
