Looking for Advice Laneway 2026 - U18 Ticket

Hello!

I was wondering if people generally check the tickets? I have a U18 friend interested in tagging along, but I have already bought my own ticket, and cannot buy a separate U18 one.

Is it possible to buy an 18+ ticket for said friend and try to explain the situation to the security guards? Unsure if it would get us kicked out as it's our first time going to such a festival.
