D-backs Announce New Bag Policy for All Events at Chase Field

Clear Bag policy to go in effect for D-backs Fan Fest at Chase Field

January 7th, 2020

PHOENIX – The Arizona Diamondbacks and Chase Field will implement the clear bag policy for all Chase Field events, including D-backs games, starting at D-backs Fan Fest on Saturday, February 15, 2020.

“The safety of our fans, players and staff is our top priority,” said D-backs Director of Security Dave Ellis. “This new policy will allow our fans to enter the ballpark faster with a more efficient screening process. Several sports leagues, venues and events, including several right here in Arizona, have adopted a clear bag policy and we believe this is the next step to help ensure that Chase Field is a safe and enjoyable venue.”

The Arizona Diamondbacks strive to be a leader within Major League Baseball and have determined that limiting the size and types of bags permitted enhances public safety and allows fans to access the stadium more efficiently by speeding up the screening process.
