BAG POLICY

PLEASE NOTE OUR NEW BAG POLICY FOR 2024

  • To speed up entry for all, it is preferred that no bags are brought to the venue.
  • If you do need to bring a bag, only one small bag per person is permitted, and it must not be bigger than A4 size (29x21x15cm) - bags or containers larger than this size will not be permitted inside the venue.
  • The venue does not have any facility to store any bags or items larger than the permitted size of 29x21x15cm.  Cloakroom available (at a charge per item) for coats, and for smaller items (within permitted dimensions).  Cloakroom cost is £4 per single item or £7 for a filled bag.


Local storage lockers may be available within the city centre (eg Stasher- an external company, not affiliated with the venue).

Security measures are in place with bag checks and searches on arrival. All bags will be searched.

More information about entry requirements can be found HERE.

Customers who need to bring any medical equipment, medicines or a small amount of food/drink with them to an event to manage a medical condition are asked to make this known to the venue prior to arrival. This is to avoid any security related concerns to allow us to ensure you enjoy your experience. All bags will be searched, but please contact our Access Team HERE for more assistance.

  • See our FAQ's for further details.

After you pass through security, your ticket will be scanned as you enter and our stewards are always on hand to help make your visit to the Arena as enjoyable as possible.
