Am I allowed to attend a tournament as a minor...? -_-

I know the answer is probably a yes, and I know there may be better ways to ask this question besides starting a thread here, but I am a bit concerned with if I am going to be allowed to enter for a tournament that I signed up. I had entered as ONE person, and since I am under eighteen and cannot drive, I won't be taking myself. And I believe I would have to be supervised at the event. The venue fee I payed was for one person. So that leaves me with two questions...
1: I payed for one person, does that mean I would only be able to go if I went inside without adult supervision? Or would they pay a venue fee at the time of the tournament?
2: The rule set for the event itself... I don't see any rules that restrict people of my age group but would assume it is an unwritten rule... somehow...

I will be attending this event, and I will be attending PM singles and nothing else. I have been looking forward to this ever since it appeared on the listings for tournaments, and tournaments are almost nonexistent in my area. This will be my first tourney and I don't want to be unable to attend for a reason I cannot control such as my age.

I'm sorry if this was the wrong place to ask my question.

Of course you are allowed. I'm sure there is a venue/spectator fee for the other person tho. Since I'm not getting my license till summer, one of my parents will usually stay outside and I will periodically text or something.

Thanks for confirming my ability to enter. I'm not saying that they wouldn't have to pay an entrance fee, but more about how when I registered I payed for one person, and if they don't allow you to pay the fee for a second person at the event that would be an unpleasant surprise. =.= There's a reason why a reservation is required.
