In order to provide a safe and comfortable environment for concertgoers, there are policies and procedures in place to restrict drugs of all types from entering the venue as well as their use, distribution, and sale. However, the following procedures are in place to accommodate patrons requiring the legitimate use of prescription medications while attending an event:

• Patrons should only bring the quantity of medication needed for the duration of the show; please leave excess medication at home or in your vehicle.
• Prescription medication must be in the original prescription container with the patient’s name and dosage listed on the label. At entrances, venue medical staff will verify the medication and name on the label match the actual medication and patron’s identification.
• Patrons with more medication than is necessary for the duration of the show will be asked to return the excess medication to their vehicle. In instances where this is not possible, the medication will be stored with medical staff in the first aid tent or disposed of.

Guests who need to carry medication or a medical device that requires anonymity or discretion may request an exemption from the venue's clear bag policy. In these cases, a non-clear bag or case is permitted under the following conditions:

• The bag must be used solely to carry the medication, medical device, and any essential supplies required for its use.
• The bag must be not be excessively larger than the medical item(s) being stored inside.
• No personal items unrelated to the medical need may be stored in the bag.
