Lied Center COVID-19 Update

Updated February 2, 2021

The need for social-distancing and safety measures will temporarily impact our processes and procedures. This page will be updated as public health circumstances evolve.

Changes to the 2020–21 season

From all of us at the Lied Center, we hope you and your loved ones are staying safe and healthy. It has been almost a year since audiences have been inside the Lied Center, and we want to thank you for your support in the new adventures this season. We wish we could see you all in person and watch the power of the performing arts on our stage. However, we must continue to prioritize the health and safety of our patrons, guest artists, volunteers, staff and the entire community. Therefore, the Lied Center Series events originally scheduled through May 2021 have been rescheduled or changed to a virtual format due to the current public health situation.

Please see the “Event Changes” section below for details.

We will continue to offer safe and uplifting performing arts experiences, so be on the lookout for additional virtual programming coming soon as well as new Lied Loves Lawrence: Pop-Up Performances in the spring.

We can’t wait for the day when we can welcome you back to your Lied Center of Kansas. There are so many wonderful events to look forward to in the future. In the meantime, please continue to take care, be safe and wear a mask so we can all gather again soon.

Thank you for your support, flexibility and understanding in this very fluid situation.

Rock Chalk!

Health & Safety

When we’re able to gather again inside the Lied, rest assured that the health and safety of our patrons, staff, artists and community will remain our top priority. Please see the current policies and procedures below related to health and safety.

Purchasing tickets:

  • Tickets can be purchased only by phone until further notice.
  • Online ticket sales will only become available again when the guidelines set by public health officials and the university allow us to lift social distancing restrictions and increase seating capacity.
  • By purchasing tickets, you agree to adhere to the Lied Center and university policies that may be implemented based on the public health information and guidelines at the time of the event.

Coming to events:

  • Seating capacity for events will be significantly decreased for the time being to allow for social distancing, with intentional space between groups.
  • In accordance with the university’s current policies, face coverings/masks are required inside the Lied Center. Patrons and staff should put on face coverings before entering the building.
  • Signs will be posted in the building to help direct foot-traffic and to provide instructions for social distancing onsite.
  • If you are feeling ill (or have recently been exposed to anyone diagnosed with COVID-19), please stay home and contact the Ticket Office to resolve your ticket order.
  • We will proceed with events only with the permission of public health authorities and the university.

Events, operational policies, the ticket sales timeline and Ticket Office hours are subject to change.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT

We are truly grateful for your continued support, and we wish good health for you and your loved ones during these challenging times, and always. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out!
