Liquor can be sold or served only between 9 am to 11 pm and there can be no consumption of liquor permitted between 12 am to 9 am. There must also be contact information from all seated patrons with a limit of six people seated together.
For sports and recreational fitness, you can have 50 people indoors for classes, as well as for areas with weights or exercise equipment. And there can be 100 people outdoors for classes.
There must be increased spacing between patrons of 3 metres and recreational programs are limited to 10 people per room indoors and 25 outdoors. There must also be requirements for contact information for all patrons and attendees for team sports and reservations are needed for entry.
Cinemas, casinos, and performing arts venues can all reopen with 50 people indoors. And there are strict requirements for liquor being sold and consumed.
