Following Carbon County’s transition into the green phase on June 12, Jim Thorpe music venues have taken their time to reopen. Penn’s Peak started hosting its weekly Social Listening Series in late June with NightWind.
These free live shows by regional acts are held at Penn’s Peak on Friday and Saturday nights from 6:30 p.m.-9 p.m. in place of the venue’s regular summer deck party series. Doors open at 6 p.m.
The events will now be inside the concert hall and limited to 250 people, with health and safety guidelines in place:
All guests are required to wear masks while entering, exiting, or otherwise traveling throughout the venue. Face coverings may be removed while seated.
Observe social distancing by staying 6 feet apart from groups outside your own.
Per state requirements, a maximum of eight guests are allowed at one table.
Per state requirements, the maximum number of people allowed in the venue will be 250. Once that number is hit, no additional guests will be allowed to enter until others leave.
Roadies Restaurant and Bar is open, so food and beverages will be available.
These shows also come with a warning: “In connection with your visit to Penn’s Peak, please be advised that you must follow Penn’s Peak’s policies, CDC guidelines, and the recommendations of health officials. Please note that any public location where people are present provides an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19, and Penn’s Peak cannot guarantee that you will not be exposed during your visit. By visiting Penn’s Peak, you acknowledge and agree that you assume these inherent risks associated with attendance. You also agree to follow posted safety instructions.”
“We ask for your patience as we adjust to this ‘new norm,’” Penn’s Peak said on its website. “We really couldn’t be more excited to kick off our new Social Listening Series! We’re so happy to have you all back!”
For the month of August, Penns Peak will also have live music on the upper deck at Roadies Restaurant from 5:30pm to 7:30pm!
