MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre
Tampa, FL · Amphitheater
MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre at the Florida State Fairgrounds east of Tampa runs a clear bag policy. Your main bag has to be a clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC tote no bigger than 12 by 6 by 12 inches, and you can add a small clutch up to 6 by 9 inches that does not have to be clear. One factory-sealed bottle of water up to a gallon is fine.
Lawn chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and cameras with detachable lenses all stay home. The camera and water rules can change by artist, so check your event. There is no bag check, so a non-approved bag has to go back to the car. Pack clear and arrive early for a good lawn spot.
