# I’m 21+, but have a vertical ID. Can I use that to get into a 21+ show or to drink at your bar?

Vertical IDs (portrait-orientation driver's licenses issued to individuals under 21) are not accepted for venue entry or bar service, regardless of the holder's current age or state of issuance.

Accepted forms of ID include a standard (horizontal) government-issued driver's license, state ID, or passport. All IDs must be current and unexpired.

Guests without a valid, accepted ID will not be admitted.

Refunds are not issued to guests who arrive without a valid, accepted ID.
