Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts announce plans to begin enforcement of size restrictions for all bags beginning September 1, 2022. The policy prohibits any bags larger than 12"x12"x10", with small wallets or clutches strongly recommended.

"Over the past few years, we have been working diligently to increase our security posture and I am excited to continue that momentum with this next step. Our staff is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all, while also delivering the same exceptional guest experience they have come to expect", said Michelle Bradley Assistant General Manager.

The bag policy is a part of the center's enhanced security screening, which also involves the use of metal detectors. This policy has been in effect at all events over the past year however, full enforcement of the bag size restrictions will begin next month and bags larger than 12″x12″x10″ will not be allowed in the venue.

The implementation of this added security enhancement will also assist in streamlining the screening process for everyone entering the center. Guests who arrive with a non-approved bag will be asked to return the item to their locked vehicle.
