Common questions
Are clear backpacks allowed at Bank of America Stadium?
No. Backpacks are not permitted, even clear ones. Your clear bag has to be a tote or similar shape within 12 by 6 by 12 inches, not a backpack.
Can I bring a fanny pack?
Yes, as long as it is no larger than 4.5 by 6.5 inches. A fanny pack that size counts as a small clutch and does not need to be clear.
Can I bring water into the stadium?
Yes. Each guest may bring two sealed bottles of water up to 16.9 ounces. They need to be factory sealed.
What about diaper bags?
Diaper bags are allowed for guests with infants, but they have to be screened and tagged at a designated gate when you arrive.
Is there anywhere to store a bag that does not fit?
No. The stadium has no bag check, so a bag that does not meet the policy has to return to your car.
