Will Your Bag Get In? Check It Against the Rules

Rules checked on

Enter your bag's size. For each event you'll see if it fits, if it doesn't, or if the rules don't say. We read every rule on the venue's or organiser's own pages.

Results and rules

"Fits" doesn't guarantee entry. Rules change, so check the official page before you go.

Stadiums

  • Wembley Stadium
    The rule
    One bag per person, no bigger than 297mm high, 210mm wide and 210mm deep (11.7 × 8.27 × 8.27 inches). The limit applies to the bag itself, so a bigger bag won't pass if you half-fill it and fold it over. The policy pages don't name bag types, so we can't say for certain about a small backpack or bum bag. NFL games use a separate clear bag policy. The help centre says UEFA, NFL and rugby events have their own bag policy.

  • NFL at Wembley
    The rule
    One clear plastic, vinyl or PVC bag within the size limit: the Jaguars use both 30 x 15 x 30 cm and 30.5 x 15.25 x 30.5 cm. The only non-clear bag allowed is a small clutch, up to 4.5 x 6.5 inches. Non-clear backpacks, fanny packs and cinch bags, briefcases and computer bags are banned. A one-gallon clear freezer bag also works. You can add one small clutch to either.

  • NFL at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Briefcases and computer and laptop bags are banned. A one-gallon clear freezer bag also works. You can add one small clutch to either. The NFL, the stadium and security won't store prohibited or excluded items.
