Our first concerts back will be July 2, 3 & 4.

Though the current mandates listed in Phase 3 of Governor Abbott’s reopening plan states that bars can open at 50% capacity, we feel that in the interest of the health and safety for our staff and our guests, we will be at half of that restricted capacity.

Therefore, these upcoming concert will be limited to 1,500 tickets.*
1000 socially distanced Reserved Seats
500 socially distanced General Admission

* This number could change based on future announcements from the Governor’s office.

This is what we are doing to keep our staff, guests, and entertainers safe as we begin to reopen our doors and get back to live music. 

Billy Bob’s Texas will provide a safe, clean, and fun experience for everyone with the implementation of the following sanitation and safety measures.

  • Follow recommendations & guidelines from the CDC as well as local health authorities
  • Limited capacities.
  • Temperature checks for every employee as they enter the building.
  • Additional cleanliness and health protocols.
  • All guests enter through the West Side doors by the Box Office.
  • Use of a non-invasive thermal camera as guests enter the building.
    • If a guest registers a high temperature, they will be pulled aside for additional screening.
    • If the guest continues to register a high temperature, they will be asked to leave. If concert tickets are involved, a full refund will be offered.
    • A member of our sanitation team will immediately wipe down and clean the area.
  • Hand sanitizer available throughout the building.
