What's this?

Not sure what Limit is, for larger venues.


30% of their capacity, or *up* to 1,000 people.

***

Through an updated executive order, Northam is also expanding capacity limits at entertainment venues and recreational sporting venues.

Entertainment venues will continue to operate under a 30% capacity limit, but larger spaces will benefit from a higher cap on people allowed inside. Previously, indoor venues could host 30% of their capacity or 250 people, whichever is less; the limit will now be 500.

Outdoor venues currently can host 30% of their capacity or up to 1,000 people, whichever is less; now only the 30% capacity threshold will apply.

Northam said that venues like the Richmond Raceway, which can hold about 50,000, can safely host more than 1,000 spectators. He said there is enough room for people to space out, and the infrastructure to allow for auxiliary services to be delivered safely.
