Yes — for Padres games you can bring your own food and bottled water into Petco Park as long as you follow the rules, which is great for saving money or accommodating dietary needs. Food must be for individual consumption only, wrapped or bagged and compliant with the stadium’s bag size limits, so don’t bring giant tubs of snacks for the whole group. Sealed bottled water (usually one per person) is okay too, so you can stay refreshed without buying a drink inside. Just be aware that not all events have the same policy — concerts and special shows often prohibit outside food and drinks entirely. If you’re unsure whether your snacks fit the rules, security at the gate can give you the final answer, so ask before you go through the line. Bringing your own food can help you avoid lines at concession stands, especially early in the game. Remember that alcoholic drinks are never allowed from outside, so you’ll have to buy those inside if you want them.
