McCain Auditorium will follow K-State's policies for COVID-19 health and safety procedures on the date of the performance. Currently, the university has implemented a temporary face mask requirement. Everyone must wear a face mask over their mouth and nose while inside McCain Auditorium. If a patron is seen not complying with this policy, they will be asked to wear a mask, ensuring it covers the mouth and nose. If an individual does not comply with the request to properly wear a mask, the individual will be escorted from the premises and tickets will not be refunded.
