Outstanding! The community around those events is almost always very welcoming, no matter the experience or age of the competitor.
I've only done one, before the pandemic, that was for new lifters only (meaning that they had never competed in a registered event). We were attached to an experienced competitor, who walked us through everything and even helped with weight selections if we wanted. I liked it, but I don't need it, as I am self-motivated and run my own personal meet at year-end to see how I've progressed. You might find that you really like them.
Keep at it!
