A Message About Covid 19
The Denton Festival Foundation is taking the COVID-19 pandemic very seriously and have been diligently working to ensure a safe and fun environment for everyone at this year’s Denton Arts and Jazz Festival. While the majority of the event is located outdoors, the City of Denton currently has a mask mandate in place for inside all city buildings and will be on hand to enforce this during the event.
We have eliminated the Center Stage (inside the Senior Center) to help reduce crowding. The Senior Center will not be open during the event. The Children’s Art Tent has changed as well; we have reduced the size of the tent and stations for the children will this year be located outdoors. In addition, the number of participants will be reduced to a smaller at any given time.
We have added full sinks to all of our portable restroom stations and will be adding sanitizing stations throughout the park. Signage reminding attendees to mask up in crowded areas and practice social distancing will also be placed throughout the park.
In an effort to reduce crowding, vendor booths will be spaced out as much as possible, both indoors and out, and we have added credit card terminals to all of the Denton Festival Foundation booths to allow for touch less pay to help reduce the need to handle cash.
Eliminated printed brochures in favor of issuing a QR code which will be displayed throughout the park so that people can scan the code with their cell phones and immediately pull up a map of the park, stage line-ups and a list of all vendors and where they are located within the park. The QR code will also be published on our website for those that prefer to print out certain parts to carry with them.
It has been 18 months since the last Denton Arts and Jazz Festival and we are thrilled to be back are committed to providing a safe environment. While the 2021 event may look a little different, please know that we are taking every precaution to ensure the well-being of all attendees and participants.
The Denton Arts and Jazz Festival has earned a solid reputation for providing the finest in entertainment and art in the North Texas Metroplex area.
