Colorado Ballet Announces Update to COVID-19 Attendance Policy
Denver, CO (March 14, 2022) – In the fall, the four resident companies that perform in downtown’s Arts Complex—Colorado Ballet, Colorado Symphony, Denver Center for the Performing Arts and Opera Colorado—issued a joint COVID-19 policy requiring vaccinations and masks at all indoor ticketed events. In light of new guidance from local, state, and federal agencies, starting now and into the spring, each company will relax this policy at a time that aligns with their patron, programming, and contractual needs.
Beginning March 21 upon the conclusion of The Wizard of Oz, Colorado Ballet patrons will no longer be required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccine, a negative test, or wear a mask while attending Colorado Ballet performances at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House. While masks are not required, patrons may choose to wear a mask based on personal preference or risk. All Colorado Ballet COVID-19 policies are subject to change at any time.
As is customary, patrons with tickets to upcoming performances will receive a performance reminder with full details including the most up-to-date information about the Company’s COVID-19 vaccination and mask policy.
