How bag limits compare in Texas

Among the 22 verified venues, the bag rules we read were: AT&T Stadium (clear 12 x 6 x 12 in, or 4.5 x 6.5 in clutch), NRG Stadium (clear 12 x 6 x 12 in, or 4.5 x 6.5 in), Globe Life Field (soft-sided, up to 16 x 8 x 16 in), Daikin Park (up to 16 x 16 x 8 in), Toyota Center (up to 10 x 6 x 2 in), ACL Live at the Moody Theater (up to 11 x 17 in, no backpacks), Frost Bank Center (up to 12 x 12 x 6 in, clear or not) and American Airlines Center (clutch 4.5 x 6.5 in, or purse up to 14 x 6 x 14 in). The table above lists the rest.

Questions about Texas venues

  1. Not by default. The bag rules we have verified in Texas 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.
