Are Clear Bags Allowed in Bridgestone Arena Stadium?

With nearly a concert, convention, bachelorette or sporting event every night, Nashville is one city in the south that you do not want to visit  without a clear handbag. Almost all events and venues are updating security policies weekly to ensure safety and swiftness upon entering. We always recommend checking the specific event, but when in doubt, grab a clear fringe crossbody handbag to head to your event! 

Our stadium approved bags are sustainable, stylish. Grab one today!
