Event-day answers for Lakefront Arena

FanProof verdictBring one clear bag up to 12 × 12 inches or one clutch up to 5 × 7 inches; backpacks and patterned clear bags are prohibited. Tickets are mobile only, with order problems handled at the ground-level west box office facing Franklin Avenue. For a route without seating steps, select the WC Row rather than assuming every accessibility icon means a wheelchair space.
