We have introduced additional procedures around our operations based on the current recommendations. We have increased our infection mitigation routines throughout the Arena, including the following:
QUDOS BANK ARENA UPCOMING EVENTS / SHOWS UPDATES:
We have made contact with all promoters of concerts / organisers of events announced here at Qudos Bank Arena – and have reschedule those events that have been affected by the advice to not proceed with events of mass gathering, or cancelled those that are unable to postpone to a later time.
Whilst we have been anticipating a variety of scenarios, there may still be more changes to the Governments ban on Mass Gatherings that will affect our upcoming events.
It will take some time to resolve the arrangements for each event, and we will announce straight away to you our patrons.
As soon as we know - we will pass on the information.
So far – all Tickets to current events that have been rescheduled and are still valid for the rescheduled dates.
No action will need to be taken – your same seats / same tickets are still valid for the new dates and you don’t need to be issued new tickets.
For events that cannot be rescheduled, tickets that were ordered online or over the phone with Ticketek will be automatically refunded to the original purchaser’s credit card. Our Box Office here at The Arena is currently closed.
For Ticketek ticket enquiries – please reach out directly to them: http://bit.ly/Contact_Ticketek
TICKETING QUERIES:
Should the promoter decide to cancel the event, please be assured that all monies from ticket sales are being held securely. Refunds will proceed automatically, directly to the original payment account, as soon as the promoter’s contract is formally cancelled.

WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT COVID-19 RISKS:
We have introduced additional procedures around our operations based on the current recommendations. We have increased our infection mitigation routines throughout the Arena, including the following:
- Our cleaning team is cleaning and disinfecting all points of contact on an increased rotation particularly during these times.
- For our everyday sanitation and disinfectant of all hard surfaces throughout public areas, we use recommended cleaning solutions that are, at a minimum, 60% alcohol-based. These have proven anti-viral/bacterial properties and are a hospital grade application. With each application, a different micro-fibre cloth is used to avoid any cross-contamination between surfaces.
- Hand sanitiser with similar anti-viral properties is available at a number of convenient locations around the venue. Authorities also suggest we all carry a personal dispenser of sanitiser with us at all times.
- We are communicating closely with all personnel engaged at the Arena to avoid the introduction of any infection by any of them. We have given clear instructions that anyone exhibiting flu-like symptoms or who has been in contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case, is to stay at home in isolation for at least 14 days and present a medical certificate before returning to work.
- We have mounted an in-house campaign in support of good health etiquette amongst all our team.
