There are many raves for 18 and older, 21 and older etc., but what about the 16-17 year olds? There are all age rave events, but many drugs/alcohol occur there, and it's just a bad idea to mix 16-17 year olds with 18+ year olds. After all, it would be more fun and comfortable if there could be 16-17 year old raves only, because there would be a less chance of older men going after young girls, older people giving drugs to younger teens, and the atmosphere would be better. It doesn't make sense to have all age raves that expose 16-17 year olds to danger, but why can't there be a rave just for 16-17 year olds to eliminate that problem? Also, it would eliminate 16-17 year olds using fake I.D.'s to sneak into older raves and get in trouble. We should all take a stand for this petition to start having raves for 16-17 year olds now.

The growth in support confirms that we have enough leverage to request a formal meeting with venue operators. I am currently drafting a briefing document that outlines our safety protocols and age-restricted concept for their review.

I think 16 and especially 17 years olds are more than ready to go to these oarties

Honestly, it feels nice to just let the music take you away, raves were a happy place to just let loose, no one was judging, everyone was happy but of course, happiness is taken away

This needs to be done! It’s so close to being 18 and if they were just for 16-17 yr olds it would be much safer. Please!!

i want to be able to party with my friends and listen to music without my parents. i don’t want to drink and don’t see the need to be above to age of 21.
