Guest safety is of the upmost importance and in order to make our events even safer and more enjoyable, guests must enter the amphitheater through metal detectors at both venue entrances.

Our list of items to bring or not bring are designed to be fair to all guests and meet a combination of safety goals, including providing smooth access into the venue for large crowds. As your host, our goal is to provide an atmosphere that allows for the maximum enjoyment of the entire audience. The items listed below may vary from show to show, but this listing can be useful as a general guide.

For most shows, the following items are allowed:

  • Seat cushions
  • Ponchos
  • Rain jackets
  • Sunscreen
  • Blankets
  • Non-professional cameras
  • Sealed water bottle (One per patron)

CLEAR BAG POLICY

The following is a list of bags that will be accepted for entry:

  • Clear plastic or vinyl bags
  • Bags cannot exceed 12” x 6” x 12”

We have made the changes outlined above to ensure our events are conducted in the safest possible manner. We encourage patrons to come early and be patient as they enter as we are continuing with our entry procedure for all events. All patrons are asked to open their jackets, remove hats, and allow security to conduct a search of all persons and parcels.

We appreciate your cooperation with both the clear bag policy and the AVA Amphitheater entry procedure for all events.
