In addition, one-gallon plastic storage bags (re-sealable, clear) are permitted, while small clutch bags and wallets, no larger than 6.5 inches by 4.5 inches, are also allowed.

Starting with #DbacksFanFest on 2/15, Chase Field will be utilizing a new clear bag policy for fans attending events.

Seat cushions without pockets, zippers or concealable areas are acceptable but cannot exceed 18 inches in width. Clothing and blankets are permitted but must be carried loosely or in an approved clear bag.

Backpacks, wallets, camera and computer bags, fanny packs, cinch bags, briefcases and luggage of any kind are not permitted. Bags and wallets exceeding the approved size are also not allowed.

Fans with unapproved bags will be asked to return them to their vehicles. Those arriving to a game by public transit can use the first-come, first-serve storage lockers located at the stadium for a fee.

Unsure if you have the right bag? The team shop will have approved clear bags fro purchase.
