Bag Check: Know Before You Go

To keep everyone safe and the lines moving fast, CMF will be following Paycor Stadium’s Clear Bag Policy during Festival Weekend.

Here’s what you can bring:

Clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bags no larger than 12" x 6" x 12" — including clear backpacks, clear fanny packs, and cinch bags.

A few important notes:

Medically necessary items are allowed after inspection.

And don’t worry — neck fans, portable fans, and seat cushions (with no pockets) are all good to go.

The goal? Keep it simple, keep it clear, and keep it moving.
