California Garlic Festival Clear Bag Policy - 2024
We're back and ready to have some safe family fun! In order to speed things up upon entry, improve security and limit touch points, we've implemented a new clear bag policy. Please review the guidelines below. Together we can make the California Garlic Festival a fun and safe environment for everyone!
• Bags that are clear plastic, vinyl or PVC and do not exceed 12" x 6" x 12".
• One-gallon clear plastic freezer bag (Ziploc bag or similar).
• Small clutch bags, approximately the size of a hand, with or without a handle or strap can be taken into the venue with one of the clear plastic bags.
• An exception will be made for diaper bags and any medical-related bags after proper inspection.
You can purchase clear bags in various places, like Amazon. Visitors are encouraged NOT to bring any bags, but the policy has been created to balance your needs with improved public safety and convenience.
