Dear Grand Ottawa Opry Patrons,
We are very excited to welcome you back to our live show! Your safety, as well as the safety of the Grand Ottawa Opry band and staff and the OMA staff and volunteers is the most important thing to us.
Please do know, that coming to any public event does pose the risk of exposure to COVID-19 and you are entering “at your own risk”. If you have experienced any of the symptoms of COVID-19 we ask that you do not attend the Grand Ottawa Opry. These symptoms include:
· Fever or Chills
· Cough
· Loss of taste or smell
· Sore Throat
· Congestion or runny nose
· Nausea or Diarrhea
We also ask that you not enter if you have had contact with anyone experiencing the conditions listed above or anyone who has been confirmed with COVID-19.
· MASKS ARE REQUIRED FOR ADMITTANCE! We encourage you to bring your own, but we will have some available if you don’t have one.
· Doors will open at 5:00 pm. Please wait in line spaced out on the front porch and down the sidewalk until it is your turn to enter.
· Upon entry hand sanitizer will be available for use.
· Ushers will direct you to your seat. Our seats are spaced appropriately apart. Balcony seating will be utilized.
· We encourage you to use the restroom or purchase concessions while the show is going on. This helps eliminate any congestion in the lobby, restrooms or other common spaces.
· A short intermission will be taken mostly to give band members a break. Band members will not come into the audience to socialize, we expect all patrons to remain in their seats unless to go outside, use the restroom or purchase concessions.
· After the show is over, we ask that you immediately leave the auditorium through either the main doors or the main floor side exits, whichever is closest to your seat.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing you again!
