COVID PROTOCOLS
COVID protocols are subject to change without notice. When attending an event in any of the Nazarian Center performance spaces please:
- Bring a mask. Current conditions will determine whether or not we are requiring masks when attending performances. This can change at any moment without notice. So it is always best to show up to a performance prepared.
- Be fully vaccinated. We always recommend being fully vaccinated when attending any performance on campus. Currently we are not requiring proof of vaccine (or test results of negative status) But this may change without notice. Be prepared and carry it with you.
- Socially distance when possible. We are not currently limiting venue capacities for our events. However, this may change without notice. We always recommend that you socially distance yourself from other patrons when possible. Our ticketing for most events this season will be general admission. So please sit where you feel comfortable and safe.
- No Will Call. To minimize contacts at our show time windows, we will not be offering a "will Call" show time ticket pickup option this season. All tickets that are purchased in advance by phone or online will be emailed to you. You may print them at home or show the email on your smart phone at the door.
By Purchasing tickets you are agreeing to the following:
- Ticket purchasers are responsible for communicating these rules and COVID protocols to whomever they provide tickets. Ticket holders who do not comply with COVID policies will not be admitted.
