how we prioritize your safety at the appalachian theatre

IMPROVED VENTILATION: Our new facility-wide Bipolar Ionization System can kill up to 99.9% of viruses on every air cycle through out HVAC system. Upgraded MERV filters scrub the air and increased outside air venting efficiently provides outdoor air.

CLEANING & SANITIZING: The building is thoroughly cleaned following each event and hand sanitizer is provided throughout the building.

BUY WITH CONFIDENCE: Tickets are refunded for events that are rescheduled, cancelled or if you are feeling unwell the day of the show.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is the Appalachian Theatre enacting these policies?

  • COVID-19 protocols for event venues reflect the best practices within our industry, the requirements of state and local governments and the recommendations of health officials.

  • By working together and following industry best practices we have reopened in the safest way possible to protect staff, artists, crew, fans, and the community at large. We believe it’s much better to take these precautions now so we can enjoy shows together rather than return to no shows at all.

Will I still have to wear a face covering?

  • At the present time, face coverings are encouraged but not required. This policy may differ per individual event. Please check your event page for the most up to date information.

What if I would rather receive a refund?

  • For tickets purchased through the Appalachian Theatre, refunds are available when requested prior to the event. For tickets purchased through a resale or third-party site, please reach out directly to those purchase sites.
