Old National Events Center Bag Policy

So, you’ve scored tickets to the big show at the Old National Events Center — congratulations! You’re picturing yourself swaying to the music, maybe grabbing a drink, and snapping a perfect selfie. But then a tiny panic sets in: what bag can I actually bring? Don’t worry, friend, I’ve got you covered. Let’s chat about the bag policy like we’re comparing purse straps over coffee.

First, the golden rule: clear is king. The center wants to see through your bag faster than a kid through wrapping paper on Christmas morning. Think transparent plastic, vinyl, or PVC — and no bigger than 12” x 6” x 12”. That’s about the size of a small pizza box, but hopefully less greasy. Choose a tiny clutch or wristlet (4.5” x 6.5”) if you don’t want to go full “window shopping.” I love a good clutch; it’s like a bag that knows it’s only there for the good stuff.

Now, the no-nos: backpacks, drawstring sacks, camera bags, and anything with multiple compartments? Nope, nope, nope. Leave those at home or risk the dreaded return trip to your car. And please, for the love of all things fun, don’t try a fanny pack worn as a chest bag — security will give you a look that says, “Nice try, but no.” I’ve seen it happen. It’s not pretty.

What about essentials? Keys, phone, and wallet? Totally fine in your pockets (if you dare to wear non-leggings with pockets) or a small clear bag. Medical and parenting bags get a pass, but expect a search worthy of a polite TSA agent. Just smile, be patient, and remember: they’re keeping us safe so we can all yell along to the chorus.

So, pack light, think clear, and bring your best vibes. The Old National Events Center isn’t trying to ruin your night — it’s just giving you a reason to simplify. Who knew a bag policy could feel like a tiny life metaphor? Let go of the clutter, and focus on the magic. Now go enjoy that concert, friend — you earned it!
