Is a musical or vocal concert performed at, and sponsored by, a church or a place of worship where an entrance fee is charged subject to the tax?
No per Code Section 12-21-2420(4) which exempts admissions charged by any eleemosynary or nonprofit corporation organized exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, or educational purposes. Also A-OAG-2 states that admissions charged by a nonprofit or eleemosynary organization are exempt, but that if it is determined that the nonprofit organization is merely a front for individuals seeking to evade the admissions tax, then the tax should be charged.
