Desert Diamond Arena Rules

Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale has some fairly strict rules, and these are subject to change without notice. If you have any queries about particular items or the Rules in general, you should contact the venue directly.

General Rules

In general, Desert Diamond Arena doesn’t allow any illegal items like guns or drugs.
Nor can you bring in anything that could cause nuisance, injury or harm to any person attending the venue.

For safety purposes, you’ll have to go through an airport-style screening on entering the arena, to detect any prohibited items. This includes metal-detector screening, bag inspection and visual inspection by Desert Diamond Arena Security. Allow plenty of time for this process and bring as few personal items with you as possible.

Please be kind and respectful to your fellow guests, so that everyone enjoys the entertainment experience in safety and comfort. Staff at the Desert Diamond Arena have been trained to intervene in any situation to ensure that this is so. If you see anyone behaving inappropriately, please advise the nearest Security Officer, Usher or Guest Services staff.

Offensive language or disorderly conduct will not be tolerated, and you may be ejected from the arena without refund or compensation. You may also be subject to arrest.
