Bag Policy
Resorts World Arena implement a bag policy for everyone’s safety as well as to enable security checks on entry to be quick and thorough, keeping queues to a minimum.
Following customer feedback, we’ve reviewed our policy specifically for Horse of the Year Show, and instead of implementing the strict A4 paper sized bag limit, we will instead adopt the following:
• Please note that for Horse of the Year Show average sized handbags and average ruck sacks will be permitted
• If you are bringing large/wheeled bags to the event, please note these will be checked on entry, we then ask that these are left at one of the Pony Club Bag Drops within the show.
• Picnics are not permitted, however we will not confiscate small amounts of food/soft drink for personal consumption
• Re-usable water bottles are permitted
• The following items are not permitted into the venue: Any item that could contravene our licence or cause disruption to the show or other visitors’ experience. These include; glass bottles, cans, thermos flasks, alcohol, picnic hampers, cool boxes, fake/replica weapons, large flags/banners, helium balloons, studded belts, dog collars, trouser chains, sharp/large rings, controlled drugs, large professional cameras with detachable lenses, video and audio recorders, tripods, selfie sticks, smoke grenades, flares and fireworks. Any item which is intended, or can be adapted, to be used as a weapon, or compromise public safety -

The night doesn’t need to start when the act comes on stage, we have a whole host of delicious food & drink offers for you before the show!
Bars: You will find our Pravha bar as you come through the doors serving up all the favourites. We also have 6 bars located at either side of the arena bowl.
