Based on the age verification, you will be issued a specific wristband upon entry:

No Sharing: Sharing alcohol coupons with attendees who are underage is strictly prohibited.

No Underage Consumption: Attendees with "Underage Bands" found consuming alcohol will be in direct violation of our event policy.

Consequences: Any breach of these policies—either by providing alcohol to a minor or by a minor consuming alcohol—will be treated as a serious misconduct and will invite severe disciplinary action in accordance with Google's company policies. This will be treated like a company event. All aspects of Google Code of Conduct and policies on alcohol use, smoking and drugs apply to the year end event.
