PYROTECHNICS:
It is an offence for a person, without reasonable excuse, to possess a pyrotechnic article while the person is in a public area or at a designated venue or while at a designated event.

Do not pick up any pyrotechnic devices as you don’t know what type it is. Some explode after flaring or smoking. These can seriously injure your or kill you. Smoke alone can have serious health issues for asthmatics and those with bronchial or other health issues.

Please note, supporters are politely reminded use of pyrotechnic smoke devices inside and outside the stadium is prohibited and the use of these objects is endangering themselves and others. Anyone caught in possession or using a pyro device will face criminal action and will be banned from Pittodrie.

PROHIBITED ITEMS:
Weapons, knives, fireworks, smoke canisters, air-horns, flares, weapons, dangerous or hazardous items, laser devices, bottles, glass vessels, cans, poles and any article that might be used as a weapon and/or compromise public safety.

No items should ever be thrown within the seating decks or on top the trackside or pitch.

THROWING OF OBJECTS:

Do not throw any objects, especially over the segregation and trackside fences.

CONTROLLED CONTAINERS:
It is a criminal offence for any person to enter or attempt to enter the Ground: whilst in possession of a container or any other item which is or was capable of holding liquid or any other thing and which, if thrown, would be capable of causing injury to another person; or whilst in possession of alcohol; and/or 3 whilst drunk.
