How the NAC is responding to COVID-19

The health and safety of our visitors, artists, and staff is of paramount importance. Due to the evolving situation of the COVID-19 coronavirus, the NAC will be extending performance and event cancellations and postponements until June 30. The NAC building, including the Box Office, remains closed until further notice.

This decision is the right thing to do to keep our community safe and healthy. Our audience expects nothing less of us. We take comfort in knowing that the NAC and its dedicated staff will be doing their part to help reduce the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Rest assured we will make every effort to accommodate our patrons and artists at this difficult time.

The NAC is taking the following measures effective immediately and continuing until it reopens:

• All ticketed performances and free public events are cancelled;
• Events booked through our Food and Beverage department (conferences, meetings) are cancelled during this period;
• The NAC’s 1 Elgin restaurant will close to the public for the duration of cancellation measures;

As of Monday March 16, the following additional measures are taken until further notice:
