A Note From Your Publisher: Info on SW Las Vegas Event Cancellations

Coronavirus means the situation is changing quickly

By Heather Landon, Publisher SW Las Vegas, Henderson & Boulder City March 13, 2020

We believe this needed to be revisited in this week's newsletter. Please follow our Facebook page for updates on event cancellations and more about what is happening in our community. 


This is an uncertain time, and things seem to be changing by the day -- if not the hour -- with coronavirus and the reaction to it as health officials and the government try to slow its spread.

SW Las Vegas events are being canceled and I have marked them as such on the events calendar as I hear about them. But I always recommend verifying event details with the venue before you attend, and it is especially important to do so right now as SW Las Vegas events may be canceled with little to no notice. 

Macaroni Kid SW Las Vegas will update our calendar as we hear of cancellations. For instance, Home Depot and Lowe's have canceled their kids' workshops nationwide for the time being. In addition, the Water Lantern Festival has been postponed, as well as many other local festivals and Easter events. 

If you hear of any event cancellations not reflected on the Macaroni Kid SW Las Vegas events calendar, please reach out to me at heatherlandon@macaronikid.com or on our Facebook page and I will update the calendar.

Please watch the CDC, the Nevada Department of Health, and the Southern Nevada Health District for the latest news.

And, of course, please take care of yourselves and your family. (But leave some toilet paper for the rest of us.)
