To Our Valued Event Clients:
With all the news coverage around COVID-19 and variants, we understand it can be stressful to think about planning or attending an in-person event. We want to remind you of the safety guidelines we have in place as well as provide some national data that could be helpful when deciding whether or not you’re comfortable doing in-person events, or if you'd prefer to do a virtual event (we do those, too!)
Over the past four months, we've hosted more than SIXTY successful in-person events with ZERO problems!
We know times are different and we are committed to working with you to provide what you need, including thorough safety protocols, flexible scheduling and virtual event options. Our #1 priority is your safety while enjoying an in-person event at the National Press Club.
What We're Doing to Keep You Safe
Air Quality & Filtration
- Our HVAC system features a new Bi-Polar Ionization (BPI) air purification system that restores clean air to indoor space by safely emitting both positively and negatively charged particles that deactivate harmful substance particles like bacteria, allergens and viruses.
Seating and Spacing
- We continue to host events up to our normal capacities while also providing you with the option to set rooms with physical distancing if you prefer.
Vaccinations
- Our staff is fully vaccinated.
- All guests, planners, speakers and attendees are required to be fully vaccinated or provide a negative COVID-19 test to enter our facility.
Masks
- All participants (staff, attendees, sponsors, and speakers) are required to wear a mask while indoors at the event, per the DC mayor's mandate.
Hand Cleaning
- We provide multiple hand sanitizing stations throughout our facilities. Hand washing is important in helping reduce the spread of COVID-19.
