Ticket holder Options, Risks, and Updated Policies for Flexibility
  • Portland Opera has created new policies for COVID-19 exchanges and refunds. Under the following circumstances, Portland Opera will permit you to exchange your tickets within the current season, or convert your ticket purchase to a donation if:
    • You or someone in your party has tested positive for COVID-19 during the 14-day period preceding the event.
    • You or someone in your party is not feeling well during the 14-day period preceding the event and has exhibited symptoms consistent with COVID-19.
    • You otherwise feel that you represent a significant transmission risk, e.g. you are caring for someone that has COVID-19 or is not feeling well.
    • We ask that any such exchange, or donation request must be made by contacting Portland Opera’s Patron Services team 24 hours prior to the performance start time.
    • If you hold tickets for a performance that is cancelled or reduced in capacity due to government mandates, staffing or company cases, or other COVID-19 considerations, your seats may be rescheduled to a convenient time, or you may receive a refund, or opt to concert your tickets into a donation. In this event, you will be contacted by a member of our Patron Services team, so that we can understand your preference.
  • It is common knowledge that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. By attending Portland Opera events, all staff, crew, performers, company members, and audience members voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19.
  • Please note that dates, programming, artistic, ticket policies, donor benefits, and COVID-19 safety protocols and requirements are subject to ongoing change or cancellation. Reasonable accommodations may be made for medical or religious reasons. Please contact Patron Services.
  • We will reassess this policy on an ongoing basis. We reserve the right to change, adopt and enforce safety measures as needed.
  • Failure to comply with safety procedures outlined by management may result in your removal from Portland Opera performances or events.
