Summer Skate

All Akins Ford Arena ticketed performances and sporting events will require patrons to carry their personal items in a clear bag. Backpacks, camera bags, binocular bags, and computer bags are prohibited. Personal items must be secured in a clear bag no larger than 12”x 6” x 12”. Wallets smaller than 5” x 8” x 2” will be accepted at entry. 

Exceptions will be made for medical and diaper bags, but proper inspection will be required for entry. 

Reminder: When purchasing a clear bag, please ensure the bag is not tinted or covered with patterns or several logos (one logo or initial on the clear bag is acceptable). The purpose of a clear bag is to keep items visible and make your point of entry a smooth, quick, and easy process. 

For a full list of prohibited items and entry procedures, visit our Fan Guidelines.

Parking is available in The Classic Center parking deck with entrances off North Thomas Street and East Broad Street.  Limited reserved parking is available on an event-by-event basis.  Visit our Event Parking Page for more details.
