COVID-19 Safety Information for Chan Centre Patrons

Welcome back to the Chan Centre! We have been preparing for your visit.

The health and safety of our staff and all visitors continues to be of the utmost importance to us. As we begin to welcome audiences back to our venues, we are following the guidance provided by UBC and the Province of British Columbia’s BC Restart Plan.

Please note the current BC Government proof of vaccination requirement. The BC Vaccine Card (with successfully scanned QR code) accompanied with a government-issued photo ID will be the only accepted proof of full vaccination (2 doses) for people who live in BC.

These protocols are in effect at public events taking place at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts, UBC Old Auditorium, and Roy Barnett Recital Hall.

Our staff will be onsite to welcome you, and we ask that you kindly follow their direction and guidance at all times. We appreciate your patience regarding any delays in service due to staff shortages caused by the current surge in COVID-19 cases.

Before you head out for an upcoming show at the Chan Centre, we recommend that you check this page and your pre-show email to stay informed of all safety requirements and to ensure that your event has not been rescheduled.
