County Center Policies
In light of the heightened security climate in the nation, the Westchester County Center has reviewed its security systems and procedures. As a result of this review, and with the goal of continuing to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for our guests and tenants and co-workers, the County Center is adding numerous procedures and security measures to its existing comprehensive security program as prescribed by the Westchester County Department of Public Safety.
Please be advised that all guests will be subject to search, at the County Center staff’s discretion, of their person and/or possessions (including but not limited to: briefcases, packages, camera bags, backpacks and handbags), which may be allowed entry after such search. Guests with prohibited articles will be turned away at the entrances to return items to their vehicle or dispose of the items. No storage or “check-in area” will be provided. Enforcement will be without exception.
CAMERAS & VIDEO EQUIPMENT POLICY
Single-frame and flash photography are allowed. All video and motion picture cameras are strictly prohibited. Neither lighting nor camera support pods are permitted. Camera equipment may not obstruct the view or path of travel of others.
Promoters of events at the County Center may ban the use of all cameras for specific shows. Check event listings for details.
DISABLED SERVICES
The Westchester County Center is committed to providing each guest with an enjoyable atmosphere in clean and safe surroundings and to making each patron’s visit a positive experience. The County Center is fully accessible and accommodating. Wheelchair seating is located in the Orchestra level (first floor) of the Main Hall.
