COVID SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, ATTENDANCE LIMITATIONS
We will comply with all state, county, or Nugget safety requirements that may be in place. As of early June, mask requirements have been lifted for vaccinated individuals.
- All seating is open except for VIP Reserved section.
- Workshop seating will be reduced by increasing the space between chairs.
- The Celebrity Showroom will be open seating except for VIP reserved seats.
Public access to the Foyer Stage, Vendor Marketplace, and Celebrity Showroom cannot be controlled. Because of that and to protect others, it is strongly recommended that you only attend the festival if you will be vaccinated against Covid. We are optimistic that things will be closer to normal by our festival dates, but once again, the majority of our audience (and your humble producers) are mature adults and we want to keep everyone as safe as possible.
