As the COVID-19 situation progresses with the spread of the Delta variant, it’s imperative that we take steps to ensure the safety of all our patrons in order to continue to operate. Based on current recommendations at the urging of most artists scheduled at Town Ballroom in the coming months we have decided to take the following precautions: 

Upon our opening on September 10, ticket holders and attendees for *ALL* Town Ballroom shows and events must provide proof of a negative, lab-administered COVID-19 PCR or Rapid Test administered within 48 hours of entry. Home rapid tests unfortunately cannot and will not be accepted.

Ticket holders and attendees with proof of a full COVID-19 vaccination may bypass testing protocol and should provide New York State’s Excelsior Pass or physical vaccination card as accepted, valid proof.

Children under 12 may not attend events for the immediate future.  

For safety of our staff: ticket holders and attendees will be required to wear masks upon entering Town Ballroom and are then strongly encouraged to be masked throughout the event.

We kindly ask anyone meeting any of the following criteria to not enter Town Ballroom:

-Anyone that has tested positive, or been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 within 10 days prior.

-Anyone that in the prior 48 hours has exhibited any of the following symptoms:

•   Fever or chills
•   Cough
•   Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
•   Fatigue
•   Muscle or body aches
•   Headache
•   New loss of taste or smell
•   Sore throat
•   Congestion or runny nose
•   Nausea or vomiting
•   Diarrhea

These protocols and procedures have been added due to the rapid escalation of COVID-19 and the Delta variant. Refusal to meet the following protocols will result in denial of entry.

We will be offering refunds to any patron that does not wish to comply with our new safety protocols from now until our re-opening on September 10th for all shows. Refunds can be made at point of purchase. 

This situation is being monitored closely and these policies are subject to change at any time and on a show by show basis. We are extremely eager to see you all back at Town Ballroom. We ask that you please work with us so that we can stay open and keep live entertainment alive amidst a global pandemic.
