At the Bryce Jordan Center, the health and safety of our guests is our highest priority. As part of Penn State University, the Bryce Jordan Center will continue to adhere to and adjust our protocols as public health guidelines evolve. As of March 7, 2022, consistent with the latest guidance from the CDC, masks will no longer be required during events at the Bryce Jordan Center.

Individuals who are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 should stay home and contact their health care provider.
