DETROIT (WWJ) -- The Detroit Symphony Orchestra will operate at full capacity for the upcoming season, but there will be plenty of safety protocols in place.
In a statement, the DSO says they will require attendees to show either proof of vaccination, or a negative COVID test.
Additionally, all patrons will have to wear a mask to enter Orchestra Hall and The Max M. & Marjorie S. Fisher Music Center, regardless of vaccination status.
The DSO says the new safety regulations will begin on September 18 and will remain in place until community transmission rates no longer require them.
“We are so excited to welcome audiences back to The Max and Orchestra Hall for a full season of concerts by our incredible DSO musicians, Music Director Jader Bignamini, and guest artists from around the world,” said DSO President and CEO Anne Parsons. “While we understand everyone’s desire to return to normal, we have concluded that these new policies are necessary to safely welcome back as many people as possible.”
“I remain hopeful that the steps we take now will be temporary and that they will ultimately help to reduce the spread of COVID-19,” Parsons added. “I invite all to watch our free, live webcasts at dso.org if you are unable to join us in person.”
Ticket holders will receive complete details on how to present their proof of vaccination or negative test results prior to their scheduled performance.
