CHAPEL HILL – The University of North Carolina department of athletics and its concessions partner, Aramark Sports and Entertainment, is introducing reduced concessions prices and new outside food and beverage options for all Olympic sports venues for the 2016-17 school year.
Fans can enjoy lower-priced food and beverage options at Olympic sports events including:
$1 – Jr. Tar Heel hot dogs, soft drinks
$2 – Assorted candy
$3 – Jumbo hot dogs, 20 oz. soft drinks, bottled water, jumbo soft pretzels, peanuts, cracker jacks, sunflower seeds

$5 – 32 oz. souvenir cup soft drinks, Bavarian gourmet soft pretzels, cotton candy
$7 – Bottomless popcorn buckets, Papa John's pizza

Fans will also be permitted to bring food and sealed beverages for individual consumption at Anderson Stadium (softball), Boshamer Stadium (baseball), Carmichael Arena (women's basketball, fencing, gymnastics, volleyball, wrestling), Belk Track at Fetzer Field (men's and women's lacrosse, men's and women's soccer, men's and women's track and field) and Henry Stadium (field hockey).
• Food items should be wrapped, bagged or left inside a container to avoid spillage.
• Food that might be thrown as a projectile must be sliced or sectioned (i.e., oranges, apples and other fruits).
• Food containers must be soft-sided and small enough to fit under the spectator's seat.
• Non-glass and non-alcoholic beverages, 20 ounces or less and factory-sealed, and soft-sided coolers with the plastic liner removed are permitted.
• All food and beverage containers are subject to inspection.
Carolina Athletics reserves the right to determine what items not listed may be deemed inappropriate for entry. Event management staff members will ask that you return prohibited items to your vehicle or discard them. Prohibited items will not be accepted for storage.
“We are excited to offer more affordable concessions and give our fans the option to bring in their own food and drinks to our Olympic sports venues,” says senior associate director of athletics Rick Steinbacher. “We hope these changes will encourage our fans to attend more events and support our fantastic student-athletes and teams.”
