Wembley restricted bag policy ! - RedPassion.co.uk

Since we all last went to Wembley with WAFC things have changed regarding the size of bags we can take into the stadium. Probably, in an attempt to foil us from taking our own snacks in, they have specified that we can only take a “small dimension” bag in. Anything bigger will be taken by security, or, you won’t be allowed in!
A nice little plan to encourage us to buy their over priced, lesser quality refreshments. Big groups, with perhaps many hungry kids, might find all this a pain.

Big Pockets then. My Everest anorak has loads of hidden pockets.

Seriously they don't deserve the finals - Time to take then to Villa Park or Old Trafford

It's an A4 size bag 29.7cm X 21cm X 21cm. Apparently they have a laminated a4 sheet of paper and if it's out of that footprint they make you check it in.

Sounds very standard to me. It's pretty generous compared to many premier league grounds.

Zip lock freezer bag will hold plenty of snacks. Handy to put your rubbish in and you can then bin it.

Yep agree.

I gone to weekend festivals with less. It's less hassle.

I can easily put up with the hassle of a bag, knowing that I have got exactly what I want at a sensible price. No feeling of being conned.

If you plan to get a programme you'll need a suitcase to keep it in, as they are usually massive.

It's to make screening at the gates easier. I went to an NFL game just before COVID and it was fairly simple - I took a large clear drawstring bag with my stuff in, and then included a non see through bag inside that to put it all in once through security.

I even took my DSLR which was against the rules. Security asked, I gave them a bat of the eye lids and in I went.
