Arkansas venue TempleLive says it will move the date of a concert by Travis McCready to be compliant with the state’s COVID-19 guidelines
Brown said that the venue was told that the only requirement TempleLive was not compliant with for hosting the show on May 18th was that everyone be required to wear masks. He added that the venue is “in the process of submitting that application and at the point that we have approval from the state, we will make those changes to that show date… The tickets that you have bought will be good for that show.
However, Brown did not address whether the McCready concert would need to cut back on its audience size in order to move forward. The state guidelines for re-opening certain indoor venues on May 18th stipulate that audiences be no larger than 50 people. TempleLive had previously said it would lower its capacity from 1,100 to 229.
TempleLive, which is located in Fort Smith, Arkansas, announced the McCready show back in April when the state seemed ready to easerestrictions by May 4th. On its website, the venue shared a set of protocols designed to keep attendees safe, including reducing its capacity, sanitizing the venue prior to the event, and dividing the auditorium into seat clusters known as “Fan Pods” to keep all groups six feet apart from one another.
Eventually, Governor Asa Hutchinson moved the state’s partial re-open date back to May 18th, and while the new guidelines allowed for indoor venues, like theaters, to open “on a limited basis,” the protocols TempleLive had in place failed to meet those rules. In an, Brown said he believed concerts should have similar guidelines to church services. “The virus doesn’t know if it’s in a church or a high school gymnasium or a music venue,” he said. “I think there needs to be some clarity there.
