About the site
Who Is Behind Bring Check and Why the Site Exists Today
Bring Check is an independent reference that answers one question: can I bring this item into this place? It covers bag policies and entry rules for stadiums, arenas, amphitheaters, theme parks and attractions in the US, UK and Canada. Every rule links to the venue's own page and shows the date we checked it.

Why this site exists
You have a ticket, a bag on the bed and a gate to get through. The venue's site usually holds the answer, but it sits in a long policy page or a collapsed FAQ, and the item you care about may be one line in the middle. This site pulls the rules into one place for each venue and links back to the venue's page, so you can read the original.
We build for someone checking the night before, on a phone, maybe already standing in line. That is why each page opens with the answer and the date we checked it.
What it covers
The site covers five kinds of place: stadiums, arenas, amphitheaters, theme parks and attractions. The first wave is in the US, with the UK and Canada to follow. For each place we track items such as bags, backpacks, water bottles, outside food, cameras, power banks, strollers, umbrellas and blankets.
Today 302 venues are verified with sourced rules and 6359 rules are live. We list 302 venues in all. A venue we have not read yet shows a Check in progress page until we have read its policy. 24 items are tracked, and the most asked about have their own item pages.
What it does not do
We do not sell tickets, show seating charts or list events, and we do not write news. Those jobs would pull a reference site away from the one thing it should do well. For the rule on your day, the venue's own page is the last word.
Who runs it
Bring Check is run by Jim Jordan. Questions, corrections and press requests go to contact@bringcheck.com, or use the contact page.
Each venue page shows the initials of the person who checked its rules and the date they did it. The full process is on the how we verify page.
How it stays independent
No venue, team, promoter or ticket seller pays for a place on this site or a say in a verdict. We do not run ads or affiliate links today. If that changes, links will be labeled, tagged as sponsored and kept out of the verdicts, and the affiliate disclosure lists the rules we hold ourselves to.
Venue names appear only to identify the places. We use no venue logos and we are not affiliated with any venue.
