As we welcome you back to the Nomad Theatre we are putting several new measures in place to ensure that we are Covid-secure. 

Our number one priority is the health and wellbeing of our visitors, members and friends. We’re following the official government guidance on working safely during the coronavirus pandemic to make sure we’re Covid-secure.

As the country moves through the Government’s proposed ‘road map’, we are aware that the measures we are required to have in place may change. Therefore, please check back before attending any events to see what the latest guidance and measures in place are. 

Measures that we currently have in place, include:

• Reduced audience numbers with socially distanced seating for our summer shows
• Clear signage and one-way systems
• Face coverings are worn by Front of House, Box Office and Bar volunteers
• Hand sanitiser stations and protective equipment for volunteers
• Regular and thorough cleaning 
• Going cash-free

Please note that our Covid-secure measures apply to all visitors, regardless of vaccination status.

You can read the full details of how our events will be Covid-secure below.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email: [email protected]

Pre-booking your tickets is essential. You can either print your ticket or, if you are able to open your tickets from your confirmation email on your mobile phone, you can just show them to us on this device. Your ticket will be scanned by our FOH team on arrival at the theatre.

Selecting your socially distanced seats:

You can choose your own seats for socially distanced events when you buy them online.

In order to maintain social distancing, we have divided the auditorium into numbers of ‘pods’, in order to comply with the Government's guidance on restrictions on the size of groups at indoor gatherings in Stage 3 of the roadmap. Please explore the online seating plan to find the appropriate size pod for your booking. Each pod should only be booked for the number of seats it contains, i.e. if you require two seats, please do not try to book a pod for three. If the number of seats you require is not available please call the Box Office on: 01483 284747

There will be multiple hand sanitiser stations set up around the building. Please use these upon entering the building and before and after touching anything in the building.

We will continue to have a one-way system in place for the remainder of the summer, which is marked by yellow and black arrows on the floor. Our FOH team will be there to guide you.

Please keep your distance from people outside of the group that you have booked with. 

We urge you to consider others and unless exempt, respect us and your fellow audience members by continuing to wear a mask in the auditorium and as you move around the building.

The toilets are open; however, we will be limiting the number of people allowed in these spaces at any one time. The maximum number of people allowed in at any one time is two.

You will no longer be required to undergo a temperature check or check-in via the NHS Test and Trace app, but if you would like to, the QR code remains available on signs in the foyer and at our entrance.
