BERGAMO JAZZ FESTIVAL
IL COVID-19 FERMA LA STAGIONE DEI TEATRI IN ABBONAMENTO
A seguito del persistere dell’emergenza sanitaria causata dalla diffusione del Covid-19, che al momento prevede la chiusura al pubblico dei luoghi di spettacolo, e nell’incertezza di quando potranno riaprire i teatri, la Fondazione Teatro Donizetti si vede costretta a rimodulare i propri programmi della Stagione dei Teatri 2020/2021 e di conseguenza ad annullare la relativa campagna abbonamenti.
Sospesi gli abbonamenti per la Stagione 2020/2021, la campagna abbonamenti riprenderà nella successiva Stagione, la 2021/2022, mantenendo validi gli abbonamenti dell’ultima Stagione andata in scena.
La Fondazione è già al lavoro per pensare ad una nuova programmazione che non prevedrà abbonamenti, bensì solamente la vendita di singoli biglietti per ognuna delle date in calendario, sarà presentata non appena la situazione consentirà una programmazione in serenità e nel pieno rispetto dei protocolli sanitari vigenti.
