The American comedy superstar is set to perform at the Glasgow venue tonight and fans have been warned about the new rule.
Punters have been reminded that there are no phones, tablets, smartwatches, cameras and recording devices allowed.
The gig has partnered with a firm called Yondr to create the mobile-free event.
It will see fans put their phones locked in a neoprene pouch. They carry the pouch with them and can get access to their device by using an unlocking station.
Organisers say the aim of the no mobile rule is to make sure everyone can “enjoy the show without distraction.”
But because their phone will be locked away, punters have been urged to remember to put their phone on silent or turn it off before locking it in the pouch.
Event-goers will have to declare all of their devices when they enter the venue and will have to print out their ticket to get in.
There will be “phone use zones” set up but you will be asked to leave if you are caught using it anywhere else.
The event page reads: “Kevin Hart is partnering with Yondr to make this a phone-free show, as are all shows on his Reality Check tour.
“By limiting access to mobile phones and devices, the artist and audience can enjoy the show in the moment without distraction.
“The use of mobiles phones, tablets, smartwatches, cameras and recording devices are not permitted at this event, so we advise leaving these at home where possible.”
The Reality Check tour saw the world-famous comic perform across the UK.
And next month he will take the global tour across venues in the United States.
