What can you take to shows at Nubank Parque (formerly Allianz Parque)? Rules for backpack, water, food and other items

Entry rules vary by event. See how to check your backpack, water, food, power bank and other items without relying on old or generic lists.

If you're going to a show at Nubank Parque, the former Allianz Parque, the safest answer is not a fixed list of "can" and "can't". The arena has a Code of Conduct with general rules, but the document itself provides that site security, the public safety authority and the event promoter can authorize exceptions in writing. In practice, this makes the show-specific rule matter as much as the arena's base rule.

This difference explains why official information may seem contradictory. On show pages published in 2026 by Nubank Parque itself, there are events that allow plastic bottles of mineral water without caps and, at the same time, prohibit food and drinks purchased outside. On another official page, additional restrictions appear for power banks and team shirts. An old PDF still hosted on the former Allianz Parque domain allows sealed processed foods and cut fruits. Using one of these sources alone could lead to you arriving at the gate with an item that will be blocked.

The short answer: check out the event, not just the arena

Nubank Parque's general rule works as a safety floor, not as a promise that every item not mentioned will be released at any show. The Code of Conduct published on the website says that visitors may be searched, prohibited items may be removed and further instructions may be given by staff. The same code also allows specific authorization from the promoter, arena security or public security authority.

Therefore, the practical order is simple: first look for the official communication of that show; then compare it with the event page on the Nubank Parque website and the Code of Conduct. If two current, official sources say different things, don't choose the one that is most convenient. Check with the promoter or arena before leaving home, especially if the item is expensive, bulky, or essential to you.

Why two official sources may differ

Nubank Parque is a multipurpose arena. One show may have a different track configuration, set design, security operation, production contract and recording rules than another. The arena's own FAQ informs that authorization to photograph and film is defined by the event promoter and that times, tickets and other conditions depend on each production.

There is also a problem of digital legacy. The name Nubank Parque was announced in May 2026 for the arena formerly known as Allianz Parque. Old pages, PDFs, search results and links continue to circulate with the previous nomenclature. This does not mean that every old document is automatically invalid, but it does mean that date, event and context are now part of the check.

In August 2026, for example, it was still possible to access a PDF of "prohibited items" in the former Allianz Parque media domain with a different food rule than the current pages of several shows. The historical document said that processed foods in original sealed packaging were allowed and that fruits must be cut. Recent show pages on the Nubank Parque website, in turn, inform that food or drinks purchased outside the event are prohibited. It's exactly the kind of divergence that makes it risky to save an old list on your cell phone and treat it as a universal rule.

Backpack and purse: there is a limit, but the published numbers are not uniform

Arena base rule

The Nubank Parque FAQ states that bags and backpacks can be used within the dimensions and purposes defined by the Code of Conduct. The code classifies as bulky objects larger than 25 cm x 25 cm x 25 cm that cannot be stored under the seats, citing large bags, backpacks, suitcases and sports bags among the examples.

What appears on show pages

Official pages for 2026 events have different wording. Some say that bags larger than a normal backpack, measuring 30 cm, are prohibited. Jack Johnson's page posts "30 cm x 30 cm". On other pages, the English version shows 40 cm while the Portuguese version shows 30 cm, which reveals an inconsistency within the published material itself.

How to decide before leaving

If your show page has a specific measurement, use that measurement as an operational reference. If she doesn't bring it, consult the Code of Conduct and FAQ. In case of conflict between 25 cm, 30 cm or another formulation, the reliable path is to confirm with the promoter or Nubank Parque. Don't count on luggage storage: the arena's FAQ states that there is no place to leave suitcases or backpacks.

Water: plastic bottle without lid appears as an exception in some events, not as a universal rule

Arena base rule

The Code of Conduct published by Nubank Parque prohibits liquids of any kind brought from outside, with the exception of drinks purchased inside the arena in plastic cups and in accordance with the event's security procedures. It also restricts closed containers that could be thrown and cause injury, as well as rigid or breakable materials.

What changes on specific pages

Some pages of 2026 shows, such as BK and O Maior Encontro do Samba, include a specific sentence according to which plastic bottles of mineral water are authorized as long as the cap is removed. The wording appears inside the prohibited items block, which is visually confusing, but the parenthesis works as an express authorization for that condition.

Jack Johnson's page, on the other hand, publishes the ban on thermoses and external food or drinks without repeating this exception for plastic water bottles. That's enough to show why it's not safe to make one show's rule the rule of everyone else's.

Thermos bottle, rigid squeeze bottle and metal container

Recent pages consulted are much more consistent for hard containers. Thermos flasks made of glass, stainless steel, metal, rigid plastic or other objects capable of causing injury appear among the prohibited items. If your doubt is between carrying a thermos bottle and a simple plastic bottle, don't treat the two as equivalent.

Food: the old Allianz Parque list should not be used alone

The old document that still appears in the search

The historical PDF of prohibited items at Allianz Parque allows processed foods in original sealed packaging, such as snacks and cookies, and conditions fruits to be cut. This information explains why so many old reports say it was possible to bring certain snacks.

The pattern found in recent show pages

On official pages of several 2026 events, the wording is more restrictive: food or drinks purchased outside the event appear as prohibited. Therefore, a sealed cookie that has already been accepted on another occasion should not be assumed to be permitted at your next show.

Where to confirm

Look for the prohibited items section on the specific event page and the communication sent by the company responsible for selling the ticket or the promoter. If the show does not publish food rules, the absence of text does not equate to authorization. In this case, use the official event or arena channel to confirm.

Power bank: a good example of a rule that can arise at the event

The general Code of Conduct consulted does not contain, in the prohibited items section, a detailed size and weight rule for power banks. Jack Johnson's official page includes a specific restriction: power bank over 2.5 cm x 8 cm x 18 cm and 300 g appears among the prohibited items.

This kind of detail shows why a generic arena list can fall short of the audience's actual question. A common accessory, which does not draw attention to a base rule, may receive a specific limit due to an operational production decision. If you rely on external battery power, check the show page and the latest messages from the organizer.

Cameras, GoPro, tablets and selfie stick

The Code of Conduct treats cameras broadly and provides an exception for private use, while restricting video cameras and recording equipment. The arena's FAQ is even more direct when it says that authorization to record images is defined by the event promoter.

On the show pages consulted, more objective prohibitions appear for professional cameras or cameras with removable lenses, GoPro or similar, tablets and selfie sticks. This means that the photography rule can change not only by equipment, but also by purpose and by decision of the artist or production.

If your camera is not a regular cell phone or if you intend to bring a detachable lens, action cam, stabilizer or extension accessory, look for the specific rule for the event. Don't use experience from a previous show as a license for the next one.

Umbrella, flag, poster and other items that usually generate doubt

The Code of Conduct names long umbrellas among objects that can be used as projectiles, while recent show pages simply list umbrellas among those prohibited. In practice, a compact umbrella may remain subject to the more restrictive event rule. For shows with forecast rain, a light raincoat avoids having to rely on interpretation at the gate.

Flags and posters also show the difference between the base rule and the production rule. The general code admits certain smaller posters and flags, without masts and under material and content conditions. Concert pages, however, may prohibit flags with poles, political posters and other materials. Jack Johnson's page also includes team shirts among the prohibited items, a restriction that does not appear as a general rule for all events.

Weapons, sharp objects, fireworks, flares, drones, laser pointers, chains, brass knuckles, helmets, noise instruments and objects that could cause injuries appear recurrently in safety rules. For these items, the convergence between sources is much greater than for water, food, backpacks or electronics.

What source is valid when the arena, promoter and ticket agent say different things

The event-specific rule is the first piece to look for

Nubank Parque's own Code of Conduct provides that the promoter may authorize exceptions in writing. This gives a concrete reason to prioritize official and current communication from that show when it directly addresses the item you want to take. An event page, production operational email, or official ticketing guidance received for that ticket is more specific than a generic post or old PDF.

The Code of Conduct remains the basis

If the event does not publish its own exception or rule, the arena's Code of Conduct and FAQ remain the general reference. They also explain procedures that apply to entry, such as search, the possibility of retaining prohibited items and the absence of re-entry after leaving the arena.

The tag holder does not replace the organizer, but it can carry its rule

Ticketmaster's terms make it clear that the buyer must comply with the Event Organizer's rules and that certain entry and item restrictions can be set by the Event Organizer. In other words, the page of the company selling the ticket may be the channel for a promoter's rule, but the decisive point is whether the information is specific to your event and whether it is up to date.

What if two current sources continue to conflict

If the Nubank Parque page says one thing and the promoter's email says another, look for confirmation before going. The arena's website offers Contact Us and provides the customer service address at sac@nubankparque.com. For a rule that may prevent you from entering or make you lose an object, it is worth keeping the response received and the date of the guidance, without assuming that an old printout will prevent an operational update on the day.

Final check 24 to 48 hours before the show

Start with the specific event page on the Nubank Parque website. See if there is a block of prohibited items, gate opening times, age classification and entry instructions. Then, check the ticket company's app or website and the emails sent by the promoter, as operational guidelines tend to be concentrated close to the event date.

Then, compare only the items you actually intend to take with the Code of Conduct. For a backpack, note the published measurement. For water, look for explicit authorization on plastic bottles and caps. For food, check to see if the event prohibits outside items. For a power bank, camera, GoPro, tablet, poster, flag or team shirt, look for the specific rule rather than assuming what silence means.

permission.

If there is still a discrepancy, confirm via the organizer or arena channel. When the item is necessary for health reasons, accessibility or another specific need, confirm this in advance and bring the applicable documentation, if there is a requirement communicated by the event.

Nubank Parque and Allianz Parque are the same location for this search

Nubank announced on May 4, 2026 that Nubank Parque would be the new name for Palmeiras' multipurpose arena, previously known as Allianz Parque. The change of naming rights did not create a new stadium; created a transition of name, brand and digital presence.

Therefore, it still makes sense to search for "Allianz Parque prohibited items" when you are trying to locate historical material, but the final check should end with the current sources for Nubank Parque and the event. An updated editorial page must treat Allianz Parque as the previous name, and not as a second arena with its own rules.

What to take, after all

Take the minimum necessary and do the last check for the specific show. Small backpack may be accepted, but published limits vary. Water in a plastic bottle without a lid is authorized at some events, but not all. External food appears prohibited on several recent pages, despite an old PDF from Allianz Parque allowing certain sealed foods. Power bank, camera and even team shirt can be given specific rules for a production.

The most useful rule, therefore, does not fit into a static list: the arena provides the basis, the promoter can create or authorize exceptions and the event-specific communication is the point that needs to be checked closer to the date. It is this layered reading that reduces the chance of discovering the rule just by checking the gate.
