Animals are prohibited in the Younes and Soraya Nazarian Center for the Performing Arts and Plaza del Sol Performance Hall with the exception of trained service animals and service animals in training for patrons with disabilities. A service animal is defined as any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability. Pets or emotional support animals are not considered service animals.

Patrons with service animals are solely responsible for control of their service animal. Service animals must remain on a leash or in a harness at all times unless these devices interfere with the service animal’s work or the individual’s disability prevents using these devices. In that case, the individual must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effec¬tive controls. Employees are not permitted to take control of service animals.

Service animals will rest in the seating area of the individual with a disability, rather than in the aisle. If the patron’s seat location is unable to accommodate a service animal, the patron may be reseated to a more accommodating location. Service animals are welcome to use any open outdoor area for relief as long as the patron picks up after the animal and leaves the area clean.

If a service animal poses a threat to the safety of, or is causing a disturbance for other patrons, performers, or employees, their handlers may be asked to escort the animal off the premises. Patrons with service animals are solely liable for any damage or injury caused by their service animal.
