    Hii

    So my favorite music artist, Nemo Mettler, is finally coming to Ireland but they're coming to the academy. My mom got tickets for me for Xmas but then I checked some stuff about the academy and now I'm not sure if I'd be allowed in cos I'm under 14. And now I'm so worried that we might go to Dublin just to get disappointed.

    Academy is very strict about age limits. It is quite possible that you will be denied entry.

    Upcoming gigs and events: Rhiannon Giddens, New Purple Celebration, Foil Arms and Hog, Nova Twins, Tanita Tikaram, David Byrne

    Academy is a concert venue running under a nightclub license and the strictest venue I've been too, I regularly get ID'D there and I'm bald and pushing 40, it is not worth the risk.

    The show in question is 18 and over so zero chance of you getting in as you are under 14.
    the academy occasionally does afternoon teen only shows when it knows the audience is heavily teenagers. No such concert announced for this one

    Not a chance

    I went to Dead Kennedys with my son a couple of yrs back

    He was 2 days shy of turning 18 and they wouldn't let him in

    Very strict in the Academy
