Can You Bring a crossbody bag to The Gorge Amphitheatre?
A small clear crossbody bag may work at The Gorge Amphitheatre, but standard crossbody bags are not permitted due to the festival grounds's clear bag requirement. If your crossbody is small enough to qualify as a clutch (up to 4.5"×6.5") and is made of clear material, it should pass. A clear fanny pack is a reliable hands-free alternative.
