The number one priority of Ballet Spartanburg remains the health and safety of our patrons, dancers, staff, faculty, volunteers and parents. We are committed to presenting live professional ballets with safety measures in place for our patrons this season. Governor McMasters has declared that South Carolina is no longer in a pandemic but an endemic and with the latest information data reflecting infection rates and hospitalizations, we feel these updated procedures will help to provide a safe patron experience.
We will continue to update our patrons on this website and through our "KNOW BEFORE YOU GO" link and emails. For the latest CDC recommendations please click the link: CDC COVID Updates

THANK YOU for working together to stay healthy and enjoy live ballet.
