This week’s blog will be short and sweet. We felt it was essential to discuss on-site protocols and trends that we will be seeing during in-person events this summer and into the fall. However, events will have necessary protocols that must be followed to keep everyone safe. Let’s get into it!
On-Site Protocols:
With the transition into stage three, all indoor and outdoor events, concerts, sports games, and other forms of entertainment are finally back! But there are specific rules, protocols and regulations that must be followed so everyone can join in on the fun safely. Below are the exact safety protocols provided by the Ontario Government, specifically for Festivals and Outdoor and Indoor Events.
- The number of members of the public in the outdoor area of the facility where the event takes place at any one time must not exceed 75 percent capacity.
- The number of members of the public in the indoor area of the facility where the event takes place at any one time must be limited to the number that can maintain a physical distance of at least two metres from every other person in the indoor area of the facility and in any event may not exceed 50 percent capacity.
- The number of members of the public at any particular outdoor attraction within the facility at any one time must not exceed 75 percent capacity.
- The number of members of the public at any particular indoor attraction within the facility at any one time must be limited to the number that can maintain a physical distance of at least two metres from every other person in the indoor attraction and in any event may not exceed 50 percent capacity.
- Social Distancing of two metres at indoor and outdoor events must be maintained.
- The person responsible for the event must post a sign in a conspicuous location visible to the public that states the capacity limits under which the event is permitted to operate.
- For greater certainty, the person responsible for the event must prepare a safety plan.
- Masks when walking between areas indoors, but not at tables when eating.
