COVID-19

Updated Aug. 8, 2021

The State of Utah and Washington County have lifted all restrictions regarding COVID-19. As a planner you may choose to enact specific safety guidelines for your attendees.


There are things you, as an event planner, can do to assist our continued efforts to provide a safe space for your event:

  • Encourage your attendees to stay home if they feel sick or have a fever.
  • Assist with the creation of signs to alert attendees of hand washing & cough/sneeze guidelines. 
  • Complete the State of Utah’s optional COVID Planning Template prior to arrival. This helps us understand the needs of your event and helps you plan a safe experience for your group. Fillable COVID-19 Planning Template

If requested by the planner, the Dixie Convention Center is willing do any or all of the following for your event:

  • Aisle ways increased in meeting rooms.
  • Entry door signs indicating precautions in accordance with our local health department.
  • Acrylic “sneeze guards” at the Registration Desk.
  • Stanchions as reminders to maintain social distances.
  • Public-facing employees wear masks.
  • Increased distance between seats in meetings. (Additional fees may be incurred.)
  • Seating for food service at 4 or 6 to a table instead of 8. (Additional fees will be incurred.)

What we will always do:

  • UV light air sanitizing behind the scenes.
  • Hand sanitizer stations placed throughout the public areas.
  • Visible and consistent cleaning of all frequently touched surfaces.
  • Our caterers are well-versed in their responsibilities for their services and follow all state and local health department guidelines.
