Levi's Stadium Bag Policy - The Key Details
Levi's Stadium is one of the premier venues for indoor sports in the San Jose and Santa Clara areas near San Francisco. It opened in 2014 and is the home of the ever-popular San Fransico 49ers. Because this venue is so large and versatile, it also hosts all kinds of other events and entertainment throughout the year.
San Francisco is a popular tourist destination thanks to its mild temperatures year-round, its natural beauty of being located along the shores of the Pacific Ocean, and even the mountains in the Bay area. For those who appreciate history and architecture, the Golden Gate Bridge can be the highlight of your visit. Other sights, attractions, and tours in the area can include an Alcatraz tour, Pier 39, the Exploratorium, The Walt Disney Family Museum, Fisherman's Wharf, Union Square, Lombard Street, and the San Francisco Zoo to name a few. If you like the outdoors, be sure to check out the many hiking trails in the area.
If you've gotten tickets to see the 49ers or some other event at Levi's Stadium there is a bag policy in effect. So let's take a look at that policy as well as other rules and tips so you'll be well-prepared.

The Basics of Levi’s Stadium Bag Policy
Levi's Stadium bag policy is pretty straightforward for guests to follow and fans are encouraged to arrive light. There is a clear bag policy, so all guests are allowed one clear back that's not bigger than 12” x 6” x 12”. Permitted bags include clear purses, clear fanny packs, clear bags, and clear backpacks. You can use a one-gallon clear plastic zip lock-style bag.
You're also allowed one small clutch bag that doesn't exceed 4.5" x 6.5", which is extremely small if you think about it. While not a bag, seat cushions are also permitted. It's one cushion per ticket holder.
Prohibited items include any bags that are bigger than the size restriction, backpacks that aren't clear, laptops and laptop bags, and other carriers. Diaper bags and medical bags are the exceptions and will be allowed. These same rules apply to game days and all other types of events. Bags are subject to inspection at the gates, and there may be additional inspections in the stadium.
There is some on-site storage but it is limited and can be expensive.
