Iowa native Maddie Poppe was scheduled to perform at the Horizon Events Center, Friday, December 4th. The socially-distanced event is now POSTPONED until Spring 2021. This postponement comes in the wake of the recent large uptick of positive Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations in Central Iowa. Also in accordance to the Governor of Iowa’s newest proclamation, limiting indoor social gatherings to fifteen people max.

The socially distanced concert was set to follow Horizon Events Center’s “Back to the Stage” format. Where all guests were expected to follow new health and safety guidelines. In addition to wearing face coverings to enter and when not at a person’s designated area or pod. Masked servers and ushers were being made available to limit lines and movement outside of pods. Guests were being asked to maintain distance between groups and to stay home if sick. Or if a person has had contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19. Horizon Events Center was excited to provide this unique distanced show concept. And will continue to do our best to follow all CDC Covid-19 guidelines and State Proclamations as we plan for Spring 2021. In efforts to bring you live entertainment in a safe environment. If attending any event in the near future, we ask you join in our efforts to safely “SAVE OUR STAGES!”

All ticket holders will receive full refunds via www.Tikly.co. Or from your original point of sale. A new date for this show is currently being negotiated and will be announced as soon as possible.
