Outside Food
Allowed

Outside food is allowed (individual portions).

Outside Beverages
Allowed

Clear, sealed, disposable plastic water bottles up to 24 oz, children's juice boxes, and medical liquids. No alcohol, carbonated or sports drinks, cans, glass, or thermoses.

Outside Alcohol
Not allowed

Glass bottles, cans, and alcoholic beverages may not be brought into PNC Park.

Coolers
Allowed

A soft-sided cooler counts as your one allowed bag if it's 16x16x8 in or smaller. Hard-sided coolers aren't allowed.

Bag Policy
Allowed

One soft-sided bag per guest, 16x16x8 in or smaller (purses, fanny packs, backpacks). Larger bags aren't allowed; diaper and medical bags are excepted.

The Spaghetti Policy

PNC Park hands every guest one soft-sided bag of 16-by-16-by-8 (and a soft cooler counts), which I read as a riverside summons for a personal cooler of spaghetti. I rule YES: noodles and sauce sail in aboard the one permitted soft-sided vessel, a sealed 24-ounce clear water bottle bobbing alongside, while the hard cooler, the glass, and the can are left on the dock. Bring no alcohol and no carbonation; otherwise the marinara crosses the Clemente Bridge a free and honored guest.

Unofficial, untangled, and legally meaningless. Trust the real rules above.
