How Does CITYPARK Staff Review Your Bag?

Any fan that has a bag with them will have that inspected by the security staff before they can scan their ticket to gain entry for a soccer game. The security staff at CITYPARK inspects the outside and inside of the bag, making sure the items don’t violate their prohibited item guidelines. Assuming there are no zero issues with your bag, the security team will return it so you can bring it inside the stadium.
