SALINA —In response to the artist's mandatory requirements that are playing the Stiefel, and a dramatic surge in COVID-19 cases, the Stiefel Theatre in Salina will begin requiring a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of show date and/or requiring proof of full vaccination for entry into all shows.
This policy will be in effect on Oct. 1, 2021. Ticketholders will be notified of these requirements via email.
The Stiefel Theatre hopes to offer rapid tests for sale (at their cost) from the Stiefel box office located at 151 S. Santa Fe Avenue. Tests will have to be taken on-site and a Stiefel staff person will provide confirmation of the results and provide a negative test verification for entry into the show (within 72 hours of the date.)
For other locations in Salina that tests are available go to:
"This policy will remain in effect until COVID-19 subsides. We have always made safety a top priority at the Stiefel. We have no choice at this point. Thank you for your understanding," Jane Gates, Stiefel executive director, noted in a news release Thursday.
