Hard Rock Stadium's Safety Policy for Miami Open Attendees
If you're planning to attend this year's Miami Open, it's crucial to familiarize yourself with Hard Rock Stadium's entrance guidelines. Hard Rock Stadium has recently introduced a safety policy geared towards improving the efficiency and efficacy of our security protocols. This policy focuses primarily on the types and sizes of bags allowed inside the stadium, rather than the usual personal items brought by attendees.
While guests are still permitted to carry essentials like keys, makeup, combs, phones, wallets, and credit cards, it's important to note the regulations regarding bags. For those interested, Miami Open-branded approved bags are available for purchase at our retail store located within Hard Rock Stadium, offering a convenient solution for compliance with our entrance guidelines.
Here are the stadium-approved bags that fans may bring into the venue:
One clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bag not exceeding 12” by 6” by 12”, or a one-gallon clear plastic freezer bag (such as Ziploc or similar).
In addition to the clear bags mentioned above, fans may also carry a small clutch bag or purse approximately the size of a hand, with or without a handle or strap.
Medically necessary items will be permitted after proper inspection at Gate E, designated for this purpose.
Diapers and wipes may be carried in a clear bag. Each family member, including children, may carry an approved clear bag and a clutch purse, providing ample storage capacity.
Laptop bags and backpacks are allowed strictly for working purposes, exclusively for credentialed sponsors.
Items such as smartphones, binoculars, and cameras will be permitted into the stadium. This policy aims to streamline the entry process while bolstering security measures.
