FAQ
Can I bring a rucksack to The Stoop?

Only if it is A4-size or smaller, which most rucksacks are not. Bags larger than A4 are not permitted, and the club cannot store luggage at the venue.

Is there a cloakroom or bag drop at The Stoop?

No. Harlequins state they are unable to facilitate the storage of luggage at the venue, so an oversized bag has to be dealt with before you arrive.

What’s the bag size limit at The Stoop?

Bags larger than A4 in size are not permitted. The club publishes the A4 benchmark without a depth measurement, and security carry out random bag searches on entry.

Can I store luggage at The Stoop if I’m travelling to the match?

No — the club specifically states it cannot store luggage at the venue, and points fans towards third-party storage nearby instead. Arrange it before you travel.

What happens if my bag is too big at the gate at The Stoop?

Expect it to be refused, and with no luggage storage at the venue there is nowhere on site to leave it. Sort an oversized bag before you arrive.
