Entry and Carry-in Policy
Safety is the No. 1 priority at Yankee Stadium, and Yankee Stadium management will take every reasonable step to provide a secure and enjoyable environment for everyone entering the Stadium.
As part of Major League Baseball's initiative to standardize security procedures at all 30 major league parks, all Guests are required to be screened via metal detectors before entering the Stadium. This new procedure, a result of MLB's continuing work with the Department of Homeland Security, is in addition to the bag-check policy already in place and applies to all Stadium events.
Metal detectors are located at all Stadium gates. Once Guests have been screened and have had their bags checked, they will have their tickets scanned. Yankee Stadium management strongly urges all Guests to budget additional time for entry into the Stadium when planning their visits.
Before proceeding through metal detectors:
Guests will be asked to remove cellphones, cameras and any large metal objects from their pockets and place them in a small plastic container for inspection. Additionally, bags and their interiors will be visually inspected by security personnel at a screening table alongside the metal detector. Only MLB-compliant bags - soft-sided and 16 inches by 16 inches by 8 inches or smaller - will be admitted. Guests' belongings will be in their sight throughout the screening process, and Guests can pick up their belongings at the end of the table once they have proceeded through the metal detector. The removal of belts, shoes and jackets is not required.
Pursuant to MLB requirements, all Guests, including children, must be screened. Infants and toddlers may be carried through the metal detectors; those children who are able to walk may be asked to go through on their own. Those Guests who choose not to or who are unable to go through a walk-through metal detector have the option of being checked with a hand-held metal detector or receiving a physical pat-down.
If the device detects something:
Guests will be directed to the side, where they will be screened via a hand-held metal detector or physical pat-down. When the items in question are discovered, Guests will be asked to present them for further inspection.
Any item or property that could affect the safety of the Stadium, its occupants or its property shall not be permitted into the Stadium. Yankee Stadium management reserves the right to prohibit or require removal of any items at its sole and absolute discretion. Any person that could affect the safety of the Stadium, its occupants or its property shall be denied entry.
Prohibited Items
Guests may not carry/bring the following items into the Stadium:
- any bag larger than 16 inches by 16 inches by 8 inches

Service Animals
Service animals accompanying Guests with disabilities are permitted in Yankee Stadium. If special accommodation is required, please contact Disabled Services. Guests who need to "park" or "air" their service animal must proceed to the Yankee Stadium Lobby, adjacent to Gate 2, to have their ticket stamped/signed by security personnel. After the ticket has been stamped/signed, Guests may exit and re-enter the Stadium only through the lobby.

Wheelchair Storage
Guests may store their wheelchairs/scooters at Guest Relations Booths or have security personnel assist with storing the wheelchair/scooter as close as possible to their seat location. Yankee Stadium management is not responsible for the damage or theft of any stored item.
Wheelchair Transfer
Yankee Stadium management strongly recommends that Guests who use a wheelchair/scooter bring a wheelchair/scooter to move around at their convenience and to access restrooms, concessions stands and other areas, as Yankee Stadium does not have wheelchairs to rent or loan for any portion of the game, match or event. Courtesy wheelchair transfers (when available) may only be provided from the gate Guests enter through to their seat location and from their seat location to an exit gate when they are ready to leave. If the need arises, the courtesy wheelchair transfer service may be halted because of medical situations. Guests may request this courtesy service from security personnel. Please be aware that there will be a period of time that Guests will have to wait for a wheelchair transfer. Wheelchair transfers are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Wheelchair transporters are not permitted to leave the Stadium to pick up or deliver Guests outside the gates.
