• All persons visiting the UBC campus and entering the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts must be able to answer “no” to all four of the following questions:

1. Are you experiencing any new or worsening symptoms of COVID-19 such as difficulty breathing; fever or chills; cough; loss of sense of smell or body aches/headaches.

If you answer “yes” to any of the above questions, please refrain from entering the Chan Centre at this time. Thank you for your cooperation.

• Additionally, the Chan Centre strongly recommends that people with underlying medical conditions and people who are immunocompromised not attend events at this time.

• The Rose Garden Parkade is the closest parking to the Chan Centre. We recommend downloading the HonkMobile app in advance for touchless payment processing.

• If you are unable to pay using the app, payment machines can be found on levels 3 and 5 of the parkade. These machines accept credit card or coins only (no bills).

• Please respect physical distancing and stay in your car until you can maintain 2m distance from other patrons in the parkade.

• Please arrive in the plaza outside the front doors 30 minutes prior to the start of the event.

• All patrons must check in with the box office upon arrival where they will have their seating locations confirmed and tickets scanned.

• The lobby and house will open 15 minutes prior to the start of the event.

• Wearing a non-medical mask is mandatory for everyone when indoors on the UBC campus. For more information on this policy, effective Sept 16, 2020, read the full UBC announcement here.

• Please follow the posted directional signage and floor markings, and maintain 2m distance from others at all times.

• Proceed to your seat right away to avoid lobby congestion, and sit in your assigned seat only.

• At this time there will be no intermissions or concession/bar sales. Patrons are welcome to bring non-glassware bottles from home containing water only.

• Please respect posted capacity limits for washrooms and elevators.

• Remember to practice good hand hygiene and wash your hands for a minimum of 30 seconds in hot soapy water. In addition to sinks available in the Chan Centre washrooms, there will be hand sanitizer stations set up throughout the venue.
