Information on the protection of minors in the Hallenduo

According to the German Youth Protection Act (JuSchG), children and young people under the age of 16 may only attend concert events in the Hallenduo if the event ends after 10 p.m. if accompanied by a person with parental authority (usually parents) or a parent or guardian with a valid ticket.

Young people under the age of 16 may attend events in the Hallenduo with a parent or guardian without any time limit, and young people aged 16 and over may attend events that end before midnight unaccompanied. If the event is scheduled to end after midnight, the young person must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

Children under the age of 6 are often not permitted to enter due to the volume of the events. The respective organizer is responsible for this and is also the contact person for any queries.

Age              without educational mandate (parents note) with educational mandate (parents note)
6 until 14 years until 20:00 unlimited
14 till 15 years until 22:00 unlimited
16 till 17 years until 24:00 unlimited

For a visit to an event in the hall duo, the legal guardian has the option of appointing a legal guardian to accompany and supervise the underage child during and after the event. There are no time restrictions for children and young people accompanied by their legal guardians.

The following points must be observed when issuing the parental authority:

  • the person responsible for the child's upbringing must be of legal age.
  • the person responsible for the child's upbringing must be up to the responsible task of supporting your child in every situation.
  • when attending an event in the evening, your child's ride home must be guaranteed.
  • the person responsible for the child's upbringing must not be under the influence of alcohol or other intoxicating substances while accompanying your child
  • in principle, you continue to bear full responsibility for your child, even if you appoint a parent/guardian.

You can download the form for issuing a parenting guardian in the sense of § 1 Para. 1 No. 4 JuSchG (Muttizettel) here (only in german). Further information can be found on the website of the city of Stuttgart.

Depending on the event, the organizer may stipulate stricter regulations that deviate from this regarding the authorization of access for children and young people to events in the hall duo. Please inform yourself in good time in advance on the website (e.g. general terms and conditions for the purchase of tickets) of the respective event organizer.
