Measures for Preventing the Spread of COVID-19 and Requests to All Visitors
At SPAC, all programs are now held in accordance with Shizuoka Prefecture’s COVID-19 Response Policy and the Association of Public Theaters and Halls in Japan’s COVID-19 Prevention Guidelines for Theaters and Concert Halls. We would appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we follow these guidelines.
[Requests to All Visitors]
■ Please refrain from visiting SPAC if you have any of the following conditions.
● A fever of 37.5℃ or above, coughing, sneezing, a sore throat, taste and smell disorders, fatigue, difficulty breathing, or any other concerns about your physical condition.
● If someone living at your home or someone at your workplace, school, etc. has been diagnosed with or is likely to have been infected with COVID-19.
● If you have returned to Japan within the period stipulated by the government from a country or region for which an entry restriction is imposed or a post-arrival observation period is required, or if you have had close contact with a person from such a country or region.
*Customers who refrained from coming to SPAC due to a fever or illness, or due to concern about the spread of COVID-19 around the country, can receive a refund for their tickets. Please contact the SPAC Ticket Center (TEL.054-202-3399) for details on the procedures.
(Although cancelation, change of schedule, and repayment are unaccepted once payment for tickets has been made, we will make an exception and accept repayment as a special measure for this occasion.)

● Please keep a distance of at least 1 meter between you and other visitors in the park and the auditorium.
● To prevent droplet infection, please refrain from talking loudly in the park and the auditorium.

Please refrain from having an active conversation when eating or drinking. Also, please refrain from eating and drinking in the venue other than the above places (drinking water in the audience seating area is permitted).

● We ask our visitors to exit the theater in groups at different timings. Please follow the instructions of the staff when exiting the theater.
