Keeping You Safe

We are so excited to be welcoming you back to The University of Worcester Arena for live basketball!

To continue to keep our visitors, staff and participants safe and provide the very best fan experience, we have implemented a number of important measures to reassure and protect everyone at the Arena. 

The University Arena has an advanced air filtration system with established control measures.

We have enhanced all cleaning regimes before, during and post event, sanitising all touch points throughout the venue and using cleaning solutions to reduce the risk of contact infections.

The Arena bag policy is in place to keep you and others safe. Please consider whether you need to bring a bag to the Arena. We do not allow large bags into the arena for security reasons. 

 You will be permitted to bring an A4 size bag or smaller into the arena. One bag is allowed per person. 

 We class small bags as no larger than A4 size, the size of a standard handbag.  

 If you refuse a bag check upon entry, you will be refused entry to the Arena and you will not be eligible for a refund on ticket(s) purchased for the event. 

Large Bags 

Our advice is to leave large bags at home. If you need to bring a large bag: 

• Participants: you will need to undergo a bag check and follow storage directions. 
• Spectators: you will not be able to take a large bag into the Arena. You will need to join the ‘large bag’ check lane. All bags will be screened before being accepted by us to store on your behalf. Bags MUST be collected within 30 minutes of the end of the event. 

If you refuse a bag check, you will be refused entry to the Arena and you will not be eligible for a refund on ticket(s) purchased for the event. 

We are introducing the bag checks In line with the Protect Duty where we seek to further enhance public security.
