How bag limits compare in Florida

Among the 19 verified venues, the bag rules we read were: Hard Rock Stadium (clear 12 x 6 x 12 in, or 4.5 x 6.5 in), Raymond James Stadium (one clutch, up to 4.5 x 6.5 in), EverBank Stadium (clear 12 x 6 x 12 in, plus a small clutch), Tropicana Field (clear 12 x 6 x 12 in, plus 5 x 7 in clutch), loanDepot park (clear up to 16 x 16 x 8 in, plus small clutch), Kaseya Center (up to 10 x 6 x 2 in), Kia Center (no bags, one clutch up to 4.5 x 6.5 x 1 in) and Amerant Bank Arena (smaller than 4 x 6 x 1.5 in). The table above lists the rest.

Questions about Florida venues

  1. Not by default. The bag rules we have verified in Florida differ, so read the table above. A small clear bag is the easier choice if you visit more than one venue, but read each page.

  2. No. We add venues in waves, starting with the places people search for most. A venue we have not read yet says so, and we show no rule for it.

  3. Often they do. A game, a concert and a festival at the same venue can have different limits, so each venue page says which events its source covers.
