Safety in Serenity
​
Like many L.A. destinations, The Montalbán had to close for private and public use abruptly in March 2020 to help slow the spread of Coronavirus. The venue successfully hosted a private event—the first L.A. red carpet event since the pandemic—on June 24.
​
In planning the public reopening on August 14th The Montalbán Safety and Regulation Team is following city and state guidelines for health and added protocols at the famed venue.
​
These include health screenings, a one-way entry and one-way exit, seating limitations, face coverings, social distancing requirements, and no walk-ups allowed.
​
The health of all Montalbán staff, including security, the cleaning crews, servers, and greeters, is and will be closely monitored throughout the rooftop season.
Staff will be required to wear face coverings and have limited contact with patrons.
Upon arrival at the venue, patrons must wear face coverings that cover their nose and mouth (at all times, except when seated).
They will enter through the north Vine Street entrance (an outdoor staircase), where a Montalbán greeter will check two forms of identification and conduct a forehead temperature reading.
​
Staff will direct each screened and approved guest to the appropriate, reserved seat. Each chair will be spaced out, with venue seating limited to a maximum of 96 people (and may increase in the future as public health officials permit).
​
While guests are seated, a staff member will distribute sanitized headphones for the ultimate movie-watching experience. Guests will be instructed to leave the headphones on their chair for the Montalbán Safety Team following the movie.
​
To visit the bathroom or exit the rooftop, patrons must use the outdoor staircases on the south side of the venue, through the south Vine Street exit. After the film screening (approximately 10:15 p.m.), guests will be asked to depart in a socially-distanced manner.
