Can I bring…

We have a strict NO-PETS POLICY unless your animal meets the qualifications of an ADA service animal. This is in place to ensure the safety of guests and their furry friends.

Under the ADA, a service animal is ”a dog that has been trained to perform specific disability-related tasks or work for the benefit of a person with a disability.”

Emotional support, therapy, comfort, or companion animals do not meet these qualifications.

Most venues prohibit coolers. Please contact the venue for your location's specific policies. Large coolers are almost always prohibited, since there is no outside food or drink allowed.
