Casual is fine, they don't care. I wore jeans, so did everyone else I saw there, except one kid who was about 18 and looked like he was wearing his Dad's suit!

They might set off the metal detector but I doubt they'd make you take them out cos they can see what/where they are.

Might be an idea to go not looking like a complete slob or something. Maybe leave the tracksuits at home :lol:

Think I went with jeans and a hoody or something. They barely even talk to you, let alone look at you though. :)
