So, you’re heading to the Eras Tour in Indianapolis. You’ve got your friendship bracelets ready. But do you have the right bag? Spoiler: That massive tote bag from Target? Not invited.
The Clear Crusade
Indianapolis is strict about bags. Very strict. Only clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bags are allowed, and they can’t be bigger than 12" x 6" x 12". Think of it as a fishbowl for your belongings. You’ll be carrying your life in a see-through sack.
Why the obsession with transparency? Security, obviously. But also? It’s a fashion challenge. Suddenly, everyone is a minimalist—or a creative genius. I’ve seen people bedazzle their clear bags with Taylor Swift lyrics. “Karma” in rhinestones? Yes. It’s the ultimate DIY flex.

What You Can (and Can’t) Sneak In
Here’s the funny part: your bag is clear, so nothing is secret. You cannot hide snacks. You cannot hide a flask. Security will see that bag of gummy worms like a hawk spots a mouse. But you can bring a small clutch—if it’s 4.5" x 6.5" or smaller. That’s pocket-sized. Perfect for your phone, a credit card, and maybe one single friendship bracelet.
Don’t even think about bringing a backpack. Nope. Not happening. And if you show up with a non-clear bag, you’ll be sent to a “bag jail” tent where they make you check it for $20. Twenty dollars! That’s like half a vinyl record.
The Weirdest Bag Trend Ever
Here’s where it gets quirky: people are wearing clear bags as fashion statements. I saw one fan with a clear fanny pack full of glow sticks and confetti. It looked like a party exploded on her hip. Another fan filled hers with fake dollar bills and a sign that said “Look What You Made Me Do.” The security guards were laughing.
Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour - AT&T Stadium
And the best part? Some fans are cutting up old Taylor Swift merch to line the inside of their clear bags. It’s like a secret poster that’s perfectly visible. Brilliant. You’re basically carrying a museum exhibit around the stadium.
The Bottom Line, No Seriously
If you forget the rules, you’ll be that person frantically shoving your phone into your jeans. Don’t be that person. Pack ahead. Buy a clear bag from Amazon or Target for like $5. Then decorate it like your life depends on it. Use stickers. Use glue. Use glitter. Make it so cool that even security gives you a thumbs-up.
And remember: the bag policy isn’t a buzzkill. It’s a fun puzzle. How can you fit your entire Eras Tour survival kit (phone, charger, earplugs, tissues, and three packs of friendship bracelets) into a tiny plastic box? That’s the challenge. That’s the game. And when you nail it? You feel like a Swiftie genius walking through those gates.
So go on. Buy the clear bag. Bedazzle it. And when you’re inside, screaming “Shake It Off,” you’ll know your bag is the MVP of the night. Just don’t forget the tissues—you’re going to cry, and security can’t help you with that. But your clear bag can hold them.
