United States Air Force Concert Band - Cancelled
Due to a rise in COVID-19 cases in Fayette County and a “High” CDC Community Level designation, the US Air Force Band concert scheduled for Thursday July 7 at the Singletary Center has been cancelled. While this is disappointing news for the band and the Lexington community, it is a safety precaution to keep the members of the band healthy as they continue their tour.
The US Air Force Band will still be performing on Wednesday July 6 at Louisville Male High School at 7:00pm. Tickets for this performance are free and available here: www.eventbrite.com/e/the-united-states-air-force-band-and-singing-sergeants-on-tour-tickets-340238852567
Please note that due to Louisville, KY being moved into Medium COVID-19 Community Level by the CDC, proof of vaccination or a negative test result (PCR or rapid) no more than 72 hours old is required to attend this performance.
