A lot of the time bag checks are for glass bottles either because they can make brawls more dangerous or because the venue doesn't want you bringing your own booze.

I'm too old and boring to go to cultural events that are likely to end in brawls.

And yep, I get it on the booze thing, but they'd have to confiscate a ton of handbag booze for the nylon jacket army to make economic sense.

Festivals is one thing, sure, but we're talking theatre shows and comedy nights as well.
