The items added to the prohibited list are:

"The safety of our guests is and always will be our primary concern at Red Bull Arena," said Shaun Oliver, Vice President of Operations at Red Bull Arena. "The changes being implemented are a simple but important step in creating an atmosphere that protects all of our guests' well being."

Prohibited items discovered during inspections at the Arena entrances must either be returned to owner's vehicle or discarded. The Arena will not provide a storage area for these items. Unlawful items that are discovered during security inspections are subject to confiscation and the person in possession of those items subject to arrest. Guests arriving by mass transit must take particular caution not to bring any prohibited items, as no exceptions will be made.

**Special consideration will be made for guests with special medical needs and parents caring for infants**
