Ultra Music Festival
Allowed items
Recent editions require bags to be clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC and no larger than 13 x 17 inches — a one-gallon clear zip-top bag or a small, hand-sized clutch also clears security. Backpacks and non-clear bags are turned away outright, though a non-backpack hydration pack is allowed as long as it's empty at the gate. Chairs, blankets, tents, and sleeping bags aren't permitted (this is a standing festival, not a campout), and glass, cans, coolers, outside food and drink, umbrellas, glow sticks, and professional cameras are barred too. Security screening includes a full pat-down. Confirm the current edition's list on the official site before you pack.
Use the official policy
Entry, bag, camping, and vehicle policies can be updated before an edition. Open the official source close to departure and make your own packing decision from that current policy.
Do not plan around loopholes
We do not publish prohibited-item workarounds. When an item is unclear, leave it out or contact the event directly.
