IMPORTANT:

To best provide Free Shakespeare for All, we are offering both Full Capacity and Physically Distanced seating in The Delacorte Theater.

Before reserving tickets, I understand the following:

Full Capacity Sections

  • Reserved for those, 12 years or older, who have been COVID-19 vaccinated.
  • Must show proof of full vaccination before entering the theater.
  • Seats have no physical distancing. People sitting in these sections will be sitting directly next to other people.
  • Children, 11 years or younger, may accompany their vaccinated parent or guardian.

Physically Distanced Sections

  • Recommended for those who are not COVID-19 vaccinated, or the vaccination status of an individual(s) in the party is unknown.
  • No proof of negative testing required for entry.
  • Seats are limited, and can be reserved in pods of 1 seat or 2 seats.
  • All seating pods are separated by unoccupied seats around it.

Face Masks

  • Everyone, regardless of vaccination status, must always wear a face mask for entry into the theater and when moving around. Those in Full Capacity sections have the option to remove their mask when sitting in their ticketed seat. Those in Physically Distanced sections must always keep a face mask on, except while eating and drinking.

You can find further details and specifics at our SAFE IN THE PARK page, which is subject to change at any time.

We are excited to welcome you back to The Public’s flagship home at Astor Place. We ask that you read and understand the following when accessing tickets.
