Safety and security information

Flags/banners: Small handheld banners and flags will be allowed through the turnstiles in the North and South Stands on a matchday and will be checked by the stewards on entry - any flags that are deemed to contain offensive content will be confiscated.

Larger flags (1 meter) will need to be pre-authorised by the club in order to comply with ground health and safety regulations. No poles will be allowed inside the stands at Elland Road. Any flag over the dimensions of 5ft by 3ft would be classed as an extra-large flag and these must strictly be agreed in advance with the Club and will be stored at Elland Road. Also any flags which are on a wooden pole are not permitted to be brought into Elland Road.

Any flags over 1x1m must carry a fire rated certificate. We hope that this initiative will be well received by our fans and supporter groups alike.

Please contact sloquestions@leedsunited.com for flag and banner enquiries.

Bag policy: Bags larger than A4 in size will not be permitted inside Elland Road. Unfortunately, there is no luggage storage facility available at our stadium.
