The Clear Bag Policy is in effect for the graduation ceremonies. Only clear plastic bags up to 12" x 6" x 12", or small clutch bags (not exceeding 4½” x 6½”) may be taken into the United Supermarkets Arena. An exception may be made for medically necessary items upon inspection.
Other purses and backpacks will not be allowed, and all small bags meeting the clear bag policy will be inspected. Prohibited items must either be returned to the owner's vehicle or thrown away, as the arena will not provide a storage area for these items.

The arena is smoke-free and vape-free, and open carry is not allowed. Each guest may bring one unopened bottle of water. Concessions like drinks and candy will be available for purchase, but the arena is cashless—only cards and mobile payments are accepted.
Other banned items include:
- Weapons of any kind
- Glass containers
- Wrapped gifts
