Arsht Center announces new COVID protocols
Miami, Florida – The Adrienne Arsht Center announced new health and safety protocols effective October 5th.
On Monday the venue in downtown Miami announced that all audience members ages 12 and older must provide proof of a negative COVID test.
Guests may also volunteer to provide proof of vaccination in lieu of testing.
Regardless of vaccination status, all guests ages two and older are required to wear masks.
“We believe this extra layer of precaution, which has been adopted by other Florida venues, will keep our community as safe as possible,” president and CEO Johann Zietsman said in a statement. “It also reflects the desires expressed by our audiences, protects the jobs of the artists on stage and the crews behind the curtain, and complies with requirements established by many touring artists coming to the Arsht Center.”
According to the Arsht Center, it implemented the new guest entry policies based on recommendations from local health officials and the venue’s own medical advisor from Florida International University’s Academy Health Systems.
