Security info
After the Paris terror attacks security checks have to be more thorough in Hungary and measures have been taken at the László Papp Budapest Sportaréna, the venue of the Olympic Qualifing Tournament.
For more on this here’s the official announcement of the Arena:
„In favor of the intensified protection of Hungarian citizens and tourists currently staying in the country, Hungary has ordered the ’B’ level terror threat.
According to this management has raised the Arena’s security protection – until revocation.
What You, dear visitors will experience from the raised security protection is a more serious control at the entrance, and a possible bag and clothes scanning.
We would like to kindly ask you to arrive earlier than usually, and not to bring any large bags and packs.
It is still strictly prohibited to bring bottles, any metal objects, sharp, piercing, or cutting tools.
The order will most probably cause delays during the admission, so we kindly ask you to be patient and understand that reducing the risks is in everyone’s best interest. Please be prepared for a similar control when entering the parking lot, where the content your trunk might also be checked.
In favor of prevention and of everyone’s security, – although it was not common in the past - police officers may be present during our events.
Let us thank you in advance for your understandig and cooperation. We hope you will have a great time in our venue despite of the recent events in France.”
