Fan Code of Conduct

The San Francisco 49ers expect all fans visiting Candlestick Park to behave appropriately and to respect all rules and regulations of the stadium. This includes all local, state and federal laws and / or any verbal or posted directives from the San Francisco 49ers or their representatives. The 49ers may refuse admission to or eject any ticket holder (without refund) who is deemed to be disorderly, displaying or verbalizing obscenity in any way or who fails to comply with these terms or any and all security measures. Please remember that season ticket holders are and will be held accountable for the behavior of fans that use their tickets.

All members of our game day staff are committed to proactively creating an environment where patrons and their families, friends and/or clients can enjoy their experience free from any of the following behaviors:

Obscene or abusive language and / or behavior
Offensive clothing
Fighting, taunting, or threatening remarks and / or gestures
Intoxication or signs of impairment related to alcohol or drugs
Smoking (except in designated areas)
Irresponsible drinking or behavior
Inappropriate displays of affection
Gang activity
Any distraction to the progress of the game
Excessive standing that obstructs the view of other patrons
Throwing objects of any kind
Occupying any seat without the appropriate ticket
Other actions that cause a disruption and / or hinder the enjoyment of the game for other fans

We have increased the presence of our alcohol and Fan Code of Conduct Enforcement teams to maintain a positive environment in your section and throughout the stadium. Fans who behave or drink irresponsibly will be escorted from the stadium and subject to permanent loss of season ticket privileges. Fans are required to sit in their ticketed seat location. When necessary, ushers will request to see ticket stubs prior to a fan entering a seating section as we believe that it is a reasonable expectation to arrive at your seats without having them occupied.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a safe and enjoyable experience for all guests visiting Candlestick Park. Thus, we ask for your assistance as we continue to address the behavior of those who might negatively affect your game day experience.
