Chaperone Policy at Knott's Scary Farm One chaperone may accompany no more than (10) guests ages 15 or younger per day. Guests 16 years or older can be asked to present a valid government issued photo identification with date of birth at entry to verify their age in order to enter the park.

Yes, as of recent policy updates, you may need an ID for Knott's Scary Farm depending on your age and the current Chaperone Policy. Knott’s Berry Farm implemented a policy requiring all guests aged 15 years old or younger to be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old to be admitted to or remain in the park after a certain time (usually 4:00 PM). The chaperone must present a valid government-issued photo ID with a date of birth. While guests over 16 don't technically need an ID just to enter if they have a ticket, security reserves the right to ask for proof of age if a guest's age is in question regarding the chaperone rule. Additionally, if you are planning to purchase alcohol or use a credit card for large purchases, a valid ID is mandatory. Given the high-security environment of the "Scary Farm" event, carrying a form of identification is strongly recommended for all guests to avoid any entry delays, especially since the event has strict conduct rules and a "no re-entry" policy that is strictly enforced by park staff.
