FirstBank Stadium

Conditional. SEC Clear Bag Policy: one clear plastic/vinyl/PVC bag no larger than 12" x 6" x 12" (a 2" trim/border and one logo up to 4.5" x 3.4" are allowed), or a one-gallon clear resealable bag, plus one small clutch up to 4.5" x 6.5"; backpacks, including clear ones, are fully prohibited. Max size: 12" x 6" x 12" clear bag, or 1-gallon clear resealable bag; clutch up to 4.5" x 6.5". Exceptions: Non-compliant bags must return to the vehicle or use paid bag storage on Jess Neely Dr.

Conditional. Vanderbilt's own site confirms reserved lots (1, 2, 4, 72C, 72B, 298A) require an advance-purchased pass assigned to a specific space — no drive-up sales — with RVs/trailers banned from those lots and directed instead to the PMC lot or Harris-Hillman School ($100 fee, opens 3 hours before kickoff). A general public flat rate wasn't found on the fetched page. Secondary sources put single-game deck parking (25th Avenue Garage, West Garage) at $20-40 by opponent. ADA parking requires contacting the Athletics Ticket Office in advance. WeGo public transit serves campus via four routes. Sourced partly to secondary aggregators for the general rate figures. Fee: $100 (Harris-Hillman School lot, RVs/trailers, confirmed officially); $20-40 by opponent (25th Ave/West Garage, per secondary sources, unconfirmed officially).

Not Allowed. Outside food or beverage containers are prohibited, full or empty, with no exception carved out for water bottles; water is sold inside at concessions.

Not Allowed. Fans are not permitted to bring in any outside food or beverage containers, full or empty.

Conditional. Medically necessary items are exempt from the clear-bag size/type rules but must pass through a dedicated medical bag check line at Gate 1 or 2, with the person needing the item accompanying the bag at all times; diaper bags are explicitly not treated as a medical exception and must be clear-bag compliant.

Not Allowed. Fans may not bring outside alcohol into any athletic facility; alcohol is sold inside at concessions instead.

Not Allowed. Coolers are explicitly listed as a prohibited bag/item.

Not Allowed. Strollers are not allowed inside the stadium and must not be left at the gates; wagons are not separately addressed in any official source found.

Allowed. A dedicated Mother's Room is available on the South End Zone Concourse for nursing parents.

Allowed. No prohibited-items text bans wheelchairs or ECVs; ADA-accessible seating, ADA parking, and an ADA shuttle service running from 2 hours before kickoff through 30 minutes after the game are documented.

Conditional. Motorized vehicles such as scooters, hoverboards, or golf carts are explicitly banned in the tailgating lots; no separate statement addresses bikes/skateboards/scooters inside the stadium itself.

Conditional. Small, handheld personal cameras are allowed; cameras with detachable lenses are not allowed unless accompanied by a media/photographer credential, and selfie sticks and tripods are prohibited.

Conditional. Drones or remote-controlled aircraft on Vanderbilt property are prohibited without prior approval and clearance.

Not Allowed. Umbrellas are not permitted in the stadium.

Conditional. Blankets are allowed carried over an arm/shoulder or in the clear bag (must come out for inspection); seatbacks are banned but rentable inside at all gates; seat cushions are allowed only up to 16" x 16" with no pockets, zippers, or backs. Max size: Seat cushions: up to 16" x 16", no pockets/zippers/backs.

Not Allowed. Weapons of any kind, including guns, knives, pocket knives, and explosive devices, are not permitted, with attempted entry resulting in immediate arrest; Tennessee law separately authorizes private universities like Vanderbilt to set their own handgun-carry policy for their own property, unbound by the public-university faculty/permit-holder carry exceptions that apply elsewhere in the state.

Not Allowed. No smoking is permitted inside the stadium, including all areas inside and outside the gates; electronic and smokeless cigarettes are also prohibited, and Vanderbilt is a smoke-free campus with no designated smoking areas at the stadium.

Conditional. Only service animals with proper documentation are permitted in the stadium; pets and emotional support animals are not allowed.

Conditional. Per Southeastern Conference policy, no re-entry is allowed, except in the event of inclement weather, when guests may re-enter with their ticket (the clear bag policy re-applies on weather re-entry).

Conditional. Outside sporting equipment such as footballs and beach balls is banned; radios/TVs are allowed only if they don't disturb other guests, and competition-area access is restricted to credentialed personnel.
