Target Field food policy

Yes, some outside food is allowed, with conditions

The Twins' ballpark guide says outside food is allowed into Target Field. Hard-sided containers (Tupperware, hard-sided coolers, thermoses) are not allowed, and no outside food may be brought into any bar, restaurant or suite area. Single-compartment soft-sided coolers up to 16 by 16 by 8 inches are allowed. Sealed bottled water of 32 oz or less is the only outside drink allowed besides liquids required for medical purposes. These are general rules, not a separate gluten-free exception.

We checked the venue’s rules on September 22, 2026. Rules can change, so check before you go.
