The University of Notre Dame announced a new clear bag policy for all reserve-ticketed events at Notre Dame Stadium, Purcell Pavilion and the Compton Ice Arena. The new policy goes into effect on September 1.

Fans will be allowed to bring a clear plastic, vinyl or PVC bag no larger than 12"x6"x12" or a one-gallon Ziploc or Hefty bag. If the bag has a logo, it must be no larger than 4 inches by 3.4 inches.

A small clutch, 4.5"x6.5" with or without a strap is permitted.

Exceptions will be made for approved medical bags or medical equipment, but the bag or equipment will be inspected.

Prohibited items include:

Purses larger than a clutch (4.5"x6.5")
Coolers
Briefcases
Backpacks
Fanny packs
Drawstring bags
Luggage
Computer bags
Camera bags
Binocular cases
Diaper bags

Additional permitted items include seat cushions 16"x16, binoculars and cameras without cases. Blankets are permitted but will be subject to search.

If you bring a prohibited item, you will be asked to return the item to your vehicle, room or home, or a vendor will be available to ship the items at cost.
