Guidance for Indoor Venues (Seated | Non-seated)
-
There are two separate guidance documents for both seated and non-seated indoor events (seated vs. non-seated). Event operators should read both of these documents very closely to ensure they fully understand their obligations.
-
“Large venue” capacity. Earlier today, we indicated that maximum capacity for “large venue” events is 750. This pertains only to seated events (see page 8 of the indoor seated events guidance) that have “self-contained spaces” which can each accommodate 150 people per space at 25%, with a maximum of 750 people within the property. This could be a movie theatre or a convention center, for example under certain conditions.
