Restaurants, entertainment venues, hotels, and other businesses across Tennessee may be looking at furloughing workers or putting them on temporary leave because of the coronavirus outbreak.
As effected workers consider their options, they may turn to unemployment benefits. According to the Tennessee Department of Labor website, workers are eligible for benefits if they lose a job through no fault of their own. This would apply in the case of closures tied to the coronavirus.
Last week, Gov. Bill Lee announced the state would begin providing unemployment benefits for those who are quarantined by a doctor and will be temporarily out of work. Applicants for unemployment benefits must demonstrate they are actively searching for a job. Lee said he expects the federal government to remove that job search requirement temporarily in the coming days.
This information is available on the Tennessee Department of Labor website about unemployment in general:
Workers can file a claim for benefits the day after a job ends or after an employer has significantly cut hours. Visit jobs4tn.gov.
Qualified applicants can receive up to $275 a week for currently up to 26 weeks, but may be extended. Wages earned in the past 18 months will be used to calculate weekly benefits and the duration of those benefits.
Applicants will need to present a Social Security number, a driver’s license number, address, phone number and email address. They must also detail their last 18 months of employment, the last day worked and reason why they are no longer in that position. The labor department will contact the applicant’s previous employer, who has seven days to respond.
It typically takes 21 days for a claim to process.

It means you’ll be unable to see the entire stage from those seats.
We sell these seats because for many fans the limited view is not a problem, and the tickets are clearly labeled at time of purchase (see photo below). Limited view seating varies event to event and could be something as small as a tiny corner of the stage being blocked from view. Call our box office at 615-782-4040 for additional information on limited view seating.
Seats marked with “Limited View” during purchase path
Many shows impose ticket limits to allow as many people as possible to have equal access to seats. This is done as a deterrent to third party vendors, i.e. scalpers, who may purchase large blocks of seats and then resell them online at an inflated cost. The term “household” refers to any shared information on one or more accounts. This includes, but may not be limited to matching names, mailing and billing addresses, email addresses, phone numbers and credit card numbers. Any households that purchase more than the allowed number of tickets may have their order(s) refunded without notice.
