All bags will be subject to search upon entry. The bag restriction will not apply to credentialed media, who will continue to enter MLS stadiums through designated entrances and adhere to all posted media bag policies and screenings.


Under the new league-wide Bag Policy, fans are prohibited from bringing the following into StubHub Center:


  • Large purses
  • Coolers
  • Briefcases
  • Backpacks
  • Luggage of any kind
  • Computer bags
  • Camera bags
  • Any bag larger than 14’’x14’’x6’’


Special considerations will be made for guests with special medical needs and parents caring for infants. 

Under the security policy, all guests will continue to be fully screened upon entry into StubHub Center. The screenings will be conducted via a full pat down or with the use of a search wand of magnetometers.


The increased security policy was unanimously supported by the MLS Board of Governors and involved input from all 20 MLS clubs.


The LA Galaxy (5-3-6, 21 points) will host the first-place Colorado Rapids this Wednesday, June 22, at StubHub Center as the club celebrates Pride Night, presented by Herbalife (7:30 p.m. PT, Time Warner Cable SportsNet, Time Warner Cable Deportes).
