SECURITY CHECK
We continuously review our safety arrangements at the stadium to ensure that we maintain a safe environment for all visitors and you can help.
We would ask that if you don't need to bring bags into the stadium then please leave them at home or in the car. Large bags will not be allowed into the stadium. Small bags (which will fit under a seat) are allowed but are liable to be searched and this will inevitably increase the time it takes to get into the stadium. Refusal to have your bag searched on request will mean you will not be permitted access to the stadium.
You are reminded that under the existing Ground Regulations the following items are not permitted to be brought into the stadium;
- Fireworks, flares, gas canisters, air horns, musical instruments, knives
- Bottles, glasses or cans, with the exception of water or soft drinks for personal consumption contained in sealed plastic bottles no larger than 500ml.
- Flags, banners, poles and other similar articles or containers, which might be used as a weapon or missile and / or compromise public safety.
- Most importantly, please remain vigilant and keep your personal belongings with you. If you see an unattended bag or similar item, or have any safety concerns then please speak to a steward. Your co-operation is much appreciated by staff, officials and your fellow spectators.
