Conditional. Clear bag policy for all ticketed events: clear plastic/vinyl/PVC totes up to 12" x 6" x 12" (logo up to 4.5" x 3.4"), one-gallon clear freezer/Ziploc-style bags, or a small clutch bag up to 6" x 9". Max size: 12" x 6" x 12" clear tote (logo up to 4.5" x 3.4"), or 1-gallon clear freezer bag, or 6" x 9" clutch. Exceptions: Exceptions made for bags containing items required for medical, family, or child care needs.

Conditional. One sealed plastic bottle of water up to 20oz is allowed, or an empty bottle to fill at stadium water stations; metal water bottles are prohibited. Max quantity: 1 sealed bottle, up to 20oz.

Not Allowed. Food and beverages are listed as a prohibited item on Iowa State's official gate policy.

Conditional. The bag policy explicitly exempts bags containing items required for medical, family, or child care needs.

Not Allowed. Alcoholic beverages are not permitted to be brought into the stadium; alcohol is sold inside instead, limited to 2 drinks per transaction with ID, sales end after the 3rd quarter, banned on the NW/NE grass hillsides, and students are limited to one drink in the student section.

Not Allowed. Covered under the current Fan Code of Conduct's ban on illegal drug possession or use; Iowa has not legalized recreational marijuana and only permits a highly restrictive non-smokable medical cannabidiol program, so any cannabis product remains an illegal drug at this public university's stadium.

Not Allowed. Coolers or containers are listed as a prohibited item.

Not Allowed. Strollers are listed as a prohibited item.

Allowed. A dedicated lactation room is available on the east concourse, just north of section 24, near the Jack Trice Club.

Allowed. Accessible seating (arranged in advance through the Athletics Ticket Office), accessible parking, courtesy carts, and elevators are documented in the official Jack Trice Accessibility Guide.

Conditional. Cameras with a lens under 6 inches are permitted; video cameras are prohibited. Max size: Camera lens: under 6 inches.

Not Allowed. The airspace above the stadium is restricted on football gamedays; all aircraft operations, unmanned aircraft systems, and remote-controlled aircraft including drones are prohibited within three miles of the stadium without prior approval from ISU Risk Management.

Not Allowed. Signs and banners are not allowed inside the stadium, per the current Fan Code of Conduct's prohibited-items list.

Conditional. Chairbacks/stadium seats are prohibited, but seat cushions are allowed.

Not Allowed. Possession of a firearm or weapon is explicitly prohibited under the Fan Code of Conduct; Iowa's Board of Regents maintains a general no-firearms-on-campus rule across its universities, with Iowa Code §724.8C providing only a narrow carve-out for a locked, concealed weapon inside a personal vehicle, not campus-carry into buildings or stadiums.

Not Allowed. Smoking, including e-cigarettes, is prohibited under the current Fan Code of Conduct, consistent with the Iowa Smokefree Air Act cited on Iowa State's official gate policy.

Conditional. Pets are prohibited with the exception of service animals used by disabled guests.

Conditional. Re-entry is not permitted at Jack Trice Stadium; FastPass wristbands are honored for entry only through the end of the first quarter. (This supersedes an older official page that had described limited pre-kickoff/pre-4th-quarter re-entry through specific gates.)
