It's going to be a busy weekend for Erie, with the Erie Otters Home Opener on Saturday at the Erie Insurance Arena and former President Trump holding a rally at the Bayfront Convention Center on Sunday.

Erie Events begins its new bag policy on Saturday as well.

Now, people must have a clear 12 by 12 bag, or a small purse no larger than five by eight. This policy goes for all ticketed events at their locations, the Warner, the Bayfront Convention Center, and the Erie Insurance Arena. There are accommodations for diaper bags, and medically necessary bags, where those will be looked at by security. 

Gus Pine with Erie Events also said for the rally they recommend people to plan to walk after parking, and to arrive early.
