We ask that you please observe these basic rules at all times to help us maintain our dedication to your best experience.

Because the Hoover Met Complex is able to accommodate such a wide variety of events, the ticketing policy will vary for each one.

In order to maintain proper capacity in our main gym, we ask that each guest present a wristband or hand stamp upon re-entry. If the weather is not cooperating for the day, please bag your umbrella before entering any of our gym spaces. We will not allow any food or outside beverage into our facilities, nor will we allow artificial noisemakers such as cowbells, keys, or more.
