We’ve made a statement about how The Pitch intends to handle our coverage of the city during this pandemic. Big takeaways are that we’ll keep covering music until the last venue closes, and even then we’ll find ways to feature local artists as best we can; also despite the cancellation of all major movie releases we still have Netflix and podcasts and we’re gonna give you the best / dumbest lists of ways to spend your quarantine days that we can.

In keeping with that, here is our central hub of event cancellations, venues and businesses that are shuttered, and everything else that might be of value to readers like you. Also, just for our own planning purposes, because we simply cannot keep up with these unless the entire team chips in.

Bookmark this page and we will try to update with every announcement we get.

The city has banned all events with 1000 or more people . The city/state has banned all events of more than 250 people, except fro church, weddings and funerals. So if your plan is to fight novel corona with thoughts and prayers, I guess best of luck to you. The current ban is for the next 21 days, with a re-evaluation at that point about whether to continue the ban.

As of Sunday, March 15th, Mayor Quinton Lucas has canceled all events/businesses with more than 50 people for the next eight weeks.
