This page outlines important policies to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex. Please familiarize yourself with the following guidelines:

Mobile Entry

With mobile ticketing, you can use your phone to access and download tickets to use for safe and contactless entry into Greensboro Coliseum shows!

Bag Policy

For safety and efficiency, we recommend entering without a bag. If essential items are needed, please limit the number of items, as bags (and purses) must be no larger than 10" x 10".
