  • Mobile ticketing to ensure a contactless entry
  • 6’ socially distanced seating “neighborhoods”
  • Contactless payment options throughout the arena
  • Additional Guest Services Team members who are specifically trained to ensure compliance for our fans regarding all health and safety protocols

Are masks required for all guests?

While inside Prudential Center, the Parking Deck presented by Ford or on the sidewalks surrounding the arena, all guests above the age of 2 will be required to wear a mask that covers the mouth and nose at all times. Gaiters, bandanas and coverings with exhalation valves or vents are prohibited, and the use of a face shield does not eliminate the requirement to wear a face covering underneath (except as noted below). When actively eating or drinking in assigned seating locations guests may temporarily lower their masks.

Any guest who is unable to wear a face covering due to a medical condition must provide at least 24 hours advance notice to Prudential Center via the method outlined below.

  • Any guest who wishes to seek a medical exemption must notify Prudential Center by emailing GuestServices@PruCenter.com and include “Face Mask Medical Exemption Request”.
  • Please include the guest’s name, the game/event the person will be attending, and seat location in the email. A Prudential Center Team Member will follow up with additional information.

Any guest requiring an accommodation that fails to notify Prudential Center via the method outlined above and attempts to enter without a face covering will be denied entry.

Any guest who is unable to wear a face covering due to a medical condition will be required to wear a face shield at all times while at Prudential Center except if necessary when actively eating or drinking in your designated seating location.

Do I need to use a specific entrance or time to enter the games this Season?

To assist with social distancing, all guests will be assigned a specific time and entrance that they must use to enter the building. Guest with tickets in even numbered sections will be permitted to enter the building from 60 minutes prior to puck drop through 30 minutes prior to puck drop. Guests with tickets in odd numbered sections will be permitted to enter the building from 30minutes prior to puck drop through puck drop. If you miss your time slot, your entry to the building will be at the discretion of the Guest Services Team to ensure social distancing policies are followed. To ensure the shortest distance of travel to your seat, use our Safe Entry tool to find out which entrance you have been assigned based on your section.

Does my entire party need to arrive at the same time?

Yes. Since ticket forwarding has been turned off for the Season, the entire party must arrive together and be scanned in at the same time.

What will the health screening process look like when I arrive?

During the security screening process, a Prudential Center Team member will use a contactless infrared temperature scanner to check everyone’s temperature. If a guest has a temperature that registers over 100.4, they will be permitted to “cool off” outside for 5 minutes before being rescreened. If the temperature remains above 100.4 they will not be permitted to enter and will be offered a refund.

Will guests be subject to any other health assessment before entering Prudential Center?

Yes. All guests must consider whether they (and others in their party) meet certain health criteria before entering Prudential Center.

By entering Prudential Center, you (and all guests in your party) acknowledge and agree that:
  • Within the prior 14 days, you have not (nor has anyone with whom you have had close contact) tested positive for or been exposed to someone who has tested positive for, COVID-19.
  • Within the prior 48 hours, you have not (nor has anyone with whom you have had close contact) experienced symptoms of COVID-19 (as identified by the CDC).
  • Within the prior 14 days, you have not (nor has anyone with whom you have had close contact) travelled to a state or international territory identified by federal or applicable local governments as being subject to travel or quarantine advisories due to COVID-19.
  • You are not subject to a mandatory quarantine pursuant to local, provincial/state, or federal health authorities.

If you or anyone in your party cannot agree to the above, DO NOT enter Prudential Center and contact a member of the Guest Services Team for assistance.

The only exceptions are soft sided clutches/purses/wallets under 4” x 7” that do not have a shoulder strap or chain attached, and medical or childcare bags under 12” x “16” x 6”. Patrons with bags that meet these exceptions should enter at the Ford Tower or the Lafayette Street entrance and expect to have their bags X-rayed.
