Can you bring a power bank to SoFi Stadium (Los Angeles)
It depends — a power bank is allowed at 2026 World Cup matches under specific conditions. The rule applies at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Battery packs up to 20,000 mAh are usually allowed but may be inspected at security.
SoFi Stadium (capacity 70,240) follows FIFA's tournament-wide item policy. US federal regulations may add further restrictions specific to Los Angeles.
Why the rule
Battery packs up to 20,000 mAh are usually allowed but may be inspected at security. Los Angeles's stadium operators have implemented the FIFA baseline plus standard USA regulations on prohibited items. Local context: SoFi Stadium is the most expensive ever built, at over $5 billion.
At the gate
- Bring only what fits the FIFA item list to avoid delay.
- Security takes 20–40 minutes during peak windows.
- Metro K Line connects LAX to Inglewood, a short walk from the stadium.
- The nearest paid storage to SoFi Stadium is signed at the security perimeter.
Alternative
If a power bank is restricted at SoFi Stadium, the practical alternative is phone chargers inside the venue.
Bottom line
It depends — a power bank is allowed at 2026 World Cup matches under specific conditions. The rule is uniform across the 2026 tournament unless a venue-specific override is announced via the FIFA app. SoFi Stadium has not currently announced an override for this item.
