AEG PRESENTS TO REQUIRE PROOF OF FULL VACCINATION FOR U.S. CONCERTGOERS AND
EVENT STAFF

Frequently Asked Questions     Vaccine Locations


LIVE MUSIC AND EVENT COMPANY WILL IMPLEMENT NEW POLICY ACROSS ALL OF ITS
FESTIVALS, CLUBS, AND THEATRES

Los Angeles, CA, August 12, 2021 – AEG Presents, a global leader in concerts and
live events, announced today that it will be requiring proof of vaccination for
entry into its owned and operated clubs, theatres, and festivals. The decision
comes on the heels of the dramatic surge in Covid-19 cases as the Delta variant
spreads throughout the United States. AEG Presents is either an owner or partner
in such iconic venues and festivals as New York’s Webster Hall and Brooklyn
Steel, The Roxy and El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles, The Theatre at Resorts World
Las Vegas, Firefly Music Festival, Day N Vegas, The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage
Festival, and Coachella Music & Arts Festival, among others.

The vaccination policy, limited only as required by law, will be in full effect
nationwide no later than October 1, 2021. Several venues have already been
following local government vaccination mandates, with others anticipated to come
in the weeks leading up to October 1. The date was chosen specifically to allow
time for any eligible unvaccinated ticketholders and staff to reach fully
vaccinated status should they choose to do so. Leading up to October 1, AEG
Presents will be implementing a policy of showing proof of vaccination or a
negative Covid test taken within 72 hours of show date where permitted.

“We have come to the conclusion that, as a market leader, it was up to us to
take a real stand on vaccination status,” said Jay Marciano, COO of AEG and
Chairman and CEO, AEG Presents. “Just a few weeks ago, we were optimistic about
where our business, and country, were heading. The Delta variant, combined with
vaccine hesitancy, is pushing us in the wrong direction again. We realize that
some people might look at this as a dramatic step, but it’s the right one. We
also are aware that there might be some initial pushback, but I’m confident and
hopeful that, at the end of the day, we will be on the right side of history and
doing what’s best for artists, fans, and live event workers.”

Added Shawn Trell, COO and General Counsel, AEG Presents: “Certain states’
regulations may override our mandate, or a few artists may not want to
immediately get on board with the plan, but we know that using our platform to
take a strong position on vaccinations can make an impact. The message we want
to send is simple and clear: the only way to be as safe as possible is to
require everyone to be vaccinated. And we’re confident that others who haven’t
been ready to make this full commitment yet will follow our lead.”

The vaccination policy will be implemented as an open-ended one, with any
changes or reversals informed by updates relating to infection rates,
transmission data, variant developments, and local and federal regulations.

“Our hope is that our pro-active stance encourages people to do the right thing
and get vaccinated,” added Marciano. “We’ve already had to deliver bad news
about JazzFest this week; I think everyone can agree that we don’t want concerts
to go away again, and this is the best way to keep that from happening.”

area.

 * What is considered “fully vaccinated”?
   
   “Full vaccination” means 14 days or more following the final dose of a US FDA
   approved or WHO recognized vaccine against COVID-19 (e.g., Moderna, Pfizer,
   Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca/SK Bioscience, Serum Institute of
   India/COVISHIELD and Vaxzevria, Sinopharm, and Sinovac).

 * How do I show proof of vaccination when I arrive?
   
   Acceptable documentation may be a physical copy of a COVID-19 Vaccination
   Record Card, a digital copy of such card or such other proof as is permitted
   locally. A photo of the front and back of your vaccination card will be
   accepted. Proof of vaccination needs to be accompanied by a photo ID.

 * What if I forget my proof of vaccination?
   
   You won’t get in. So please don’t.

 * What if I have a medical condition or religious belief that exempts me from
   getting vaccinated?
   
   Any patron needing an exemption due to a medical condition, disability or
   religious belief will need to complete the attached form and bring the signed
   form along with a proof of a negative COVID test (molecular, PCR or antigen)
   that was administered by an official testing center to the event. Test must
   be taken no more than 72 hours prior to entry. Home testing kit results will
   not be accepted for entry.

 * WHAT IF I HAVE TICKETS TO A SHOW ON OR AFTER OCTOBER 1 AND WON’T BE FULLY
   VACCINATED IN TIME?
   
   Beginning October 1, you are required to be fully vaccinated to attend. All
   original purchasers were sent emails with the new requirements and given a
   window of time to request a refund, if applicable.

 * I have no intention of getting vaccinated, so what now?
   
   We wish you would reconsider your choice because this is a matter of public
   health, and we won’t get to have nice things like normal concerts without
   masks unless everyone gets vaccinated.
   
   Based on your event date, 8/16-26 and 9/20-26 were the refund windows.
   Refunds outside of this window will not be granted. If your local mandate is
   equal to or more strict than our current company policy, no refunds are
   available.
   
   For all AXS ticket purchases after 8/12, buyers are prompted with a health
   policy pop up and must acknowledge the vaccination requirement before they
   are able to purchase.

 * What about attendees under the age of 12?
   
   As the vaccine has not been approved for use on kids under age 12, a proof of
   a negative COVID test (molecular, PCR or antigen) that was administered by an
   official testing center will be required. Test results must be dated within
   72 hours of the event.

 * I’m visiting from another country, where other Covid vaccines are approved
   for use (AstraZeneca, for example), will I be able to get in?
   
   Yes, as long as you’re considered fully vaccinated.

 * IF NEGATIVE TESTS ARE ACCEPTED FOR MY EVENT – WHAT KIND OF TESTS WILL BE
   ACCEPTED?
   
   A negative COVID-19 test result (molecular, PCR or antigen) that was
   administered by an official testing center. Test results must be taken within
   72 hours of the event. Home testing kit results will not be accepted for
   entry.
   
   Reminder: Attendees and staff are required to show proof of vaccination for
   entry into venues owned and operated by AEG Presents.

 * Will I still have to wear a mask?
   
   Where not required by law, we are STRONGLY ENCOURAGING you to continue
   wearing a mask at our events. It stops the spread of disease (this summer
   cold that went around was no walk in the park either), and the Delta Variant
   is highly contagious, even among the fully vaccinated.

 * Alright, you sold me. So how can I get vaccinated?
