Seating Capacity Restrictions Lifted
COVID-19 event capacity restrictions will be lifted as of Tuesday, June 22, in accordance with the recently announced lifting of restrictions by the State of Michigan. Previously established wait lists for Mendel Center event tickets are no longer be needed. Those patrons who have been placed on wait lists for events now have the opportunity to purchase tickets to their selected events.
Zoned General Admission Seating
For the 2021-22 season, seating for all Mainstage events will be general admission by zone – two or three zones on the main floor plus one zone in the balcony. Because of potential changes in allowable seating capacities and configurations, this plan allows for seating flexibility, provides patron health protections, and reduces potential disruption for ticket holders.
Online Live Stream Option
Knowing that some people may not be ready or able to attend in-person events right away, select events will be available for live stream viewing from home.
