They will search all persons and bags on entry and confiscate any material that is deemed "political". They will do this on the grounds of safety and security so "people won't throw dangerous objects at competitors" and "nudity and hate speech will not be on signs" as it's an all ages event.

It's still not enough if attendees start chanting. Heck some may go only to do that.

Then they will be "removed from the premises" for "causing a disturbance", with their further entry forfeited.

I'm sure there's some language in the legalese of the ticket already where they can do this "at their discretion".
