PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Taylor Swift is bringing her Reputation Stadium Tour to Pittsburgh on Tuesday and Heinz Field management wants to remind concertgoers of its parking lot and stadium policies.
The NFL's clear bag policy will be in effect for the concert. Fans may bring a clear plastic bag the size of a 1-gallon Ziploc bag or a "small hand-held purse clutch" into the stadium. For more details on the bag policy, visit HeinzField.com/bagpolicy.
Additionally, the following items are not permitted in the stadium: selfie sticks, coolers, thermoses, backpacks, large purses, cans, glass bottles, flasks, alcoholic beverages, laser pointers, noisemakers, strollers, video and movie cameras, tripods, audio recording equipment, weapons and any other items deemed dangerous and/or inappropriate. Umbrellas are allowed in the stadium, but they are not allowed to be opened in the seating bowl.
