We look forward to providing a positive experience for all event attendees. To help with that, please come prepared to show one of the following during the event check-in process:

  • A printed or digital negative COVID-19 PCR or antigen test (rapid test) administered by a healthcare professional with 72 hours to a guest’s given event that includes the guest’s name and date the last test was administered

Per campus guidelines at both venues, masks are required for all guests regardless of vaccination status.
