Walton Arts Center Lists Covid19 Show Updates

Based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and directives from Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson and Fayetteville Mayor Lioneld Jordan to suspend large events and mass gatherings for eight weeks in order to help reduce the spread of coronavirus, the Walton Arts Center has suspended some upcoming events and are working with resident companies, artists and tours to reschedule performances for later this year if possible. Below is a list of shows according to their current status from www.waltonartscenter.org.

What happens with my tickets?

When performances are rescheduled, your tickets will be good for the new date. You only need to contact us if you cannot attend.

If a show is shown as postponed, the show is being rescheduled but don’t yet have a confirmed date. Please hold your tickets until that new date is announced.

If a show has to be canceled, patrons with tickets will be contacted. The options for your tickets are:

As nonprofit arts organizations, we rely on the audiences we serve for financial support. By donating your tickets, you will provide vital support for the performing arts that inspire and enrich our community. 100 percent of the money donated will fund arts education programming – this does not count toward your Friends donations.
    • Receive a ticketing credit on your account that can be used in the 2020/21 season.
    • Receive a refund.

Thank you for your continued support, patience and understanding.
