Final Checklist: Prohibited Items – Do Not Bring…
She Kicks Special Edition, October 2026 p.30
The fanzine closes with FIFA’s list of what supporters could not take into a stadium at France 2019. Bags over 25cm cubed would be refused at the turnstile, so larger luggage had to be stored beforehand. Flags and banners were allowed up to two metres by one and a half, in fireproof material, on flexible plastic poles no longer than a metre, and stewards would want to see them first. Beyond the obvious firearms and drugs, the ban ran to anything usable as a weapon including large umbrellas and folding chairs, bottles and cans of any material, drones and remote-controlled aircraft, laser pointers, liquids without a medical reason, pyrotechnics, promotional or commercial material, paper rolls, noise-making instruments from vuvuzelas to klaxons, professional camera equipment, and any discriminatory or political wording or symbol.
