CLEAR BAG POLICY AND PROHIBITED ITEMS
A clear bag policy (along with security screening) will be in place at the 2024 NFL Brazil Game, to provide a safe environment for all our fans. All clear bags entering the stadium must be no larger than 12"x6"x12" (30.5 x 15.25 x 30.5 cm) and will be inspected closely by security upon entry to the stadium, alongside a pat down. The NFL reserves the right to refuse entry of certain items into the stadium if security believes they are inappropriate.
All guests are prohibited from bringing any bag into the stadium that does not follow the NFL regulations.
