COVID-19 AUDIENCE SAFETY PROTOCOLS:
The TRYPO Board of Directors have established the following protocols for venues where some audience distancing can be observed, like the David L. Lawrence Convention Center “Spirit of Pittsburgh” Ballroom.
- Maintaining Distancing: Audience chairs will be set in a distanced format, and we request that they not be moved. Audience members are asked to maintain distancing in lobby areas, restrooms, and while in ticketing lines. In-person audiences may be limited due to capacity while distanced.
- Masks: Well-fitting masks required at all times (covering nose and mouth and tightly fitted).
- Symptom check reminders before events and symptom check upon arrival.
- TRYPO asks audiences to follow CDC guidance for attendance at the concert:
- Attendees who have any active COVID-19 symptoms should not attend the concert, regardless of vaccination status.
- Unvaccinated attendees who had a close contact COVID-19 exposure or who were contact traced should not attend the concert even if they are asymptomatic.
- Vaccinated attendees who had a close contact COVID-19 exposure or who were contact traced may attend as long as they are asymptomatic.
Sanitizing stations will be set up throughout the venue. We greatly appreciate your cooperation as we look forward to making music for you as safely as possible!
