Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts

HEALTH ADVISORY

To ensure our patrons’ health and security, as well as the safety of our performers and staff, the Kauffman Center in collaboration with the Kansas City Symphony, Kansas City Ballet, Lyric Opera of Kansas City and Harriman-Jewell Series have implemented the following policy.

Temporarily, masks are required to be worn over the mouth and nose at all times inside the Kauffman Center, except while actively eating or drinking.

All patrons with proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 may attend all performances at the Kauffman Center. Photo IDs are always required for all patrons regardless of vaccination status. “Fully Vaccinated” means that a ticket holder’s performance is at least 14 days after their final vaccine dose (Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson or other WHO-approved vaccine). Booster doses of the vaccine are not required at this time.

Effective Oct. 12, 2021:

A negative COVID-19 PCR or antigen test taken within 72 hours prior to a performance will now be accepted as an alternative to proof of vaccination (subject to artist approval) for Kauffman Center Presents performances and other select performances from touring/community arts organizations presented throughout the season. For a list of acceptable COVID-19 tests and additional FAQs, visit our health page.

PLEASE NOTE: Organizations NOT accepting negative COVID-19 tests and requiring proof of full vaccination at performances include:

• Kansas City Ballet
• Kansas City Symphony
• Lyric Opera of Kansas City
• Harriman-Jewell Series
