      Let \(G\) be a finite group which acts on a smooth complex variety \(X\) via holomorphic maps. Generally speaking, a McKay correspondence establishes an equivalence between invariants of the orbifold \((X,G)\) and invariants of crepant resolutions of the quotient \(X/G\). In the present writing, the author establishes such an equivalence between equivariant elliptic genera for open varieties with torus actions, building on work of \textit{L. Borisov} and \textit{A. Libgober} [Ann. Math. (2) 161, No. 3, 1521--1569 (2005; Zbl 1153.58301)] in the non-equivariant closed case. The localization techniques of \textit{M. F. Atiyah} and \textit{R. Bott} [Topology 23, 1--28 (1984; Zbl 0521.58025)] are used to extend the earlier results to the new setting. As corollaries, the author proves an equivariant analogue of the Dijkgraaf-Moore-Verlinde-Verlinde formula and reproves the equivariant elliptic genus analogue of the classical McKay correspondence from his earlier paper [Pac.~J. Math. 235, No. 2, 345--377 (2008; Zbl 1203.58007)].
