Amusement parks, water parks, outdoor theatres, performing arts performances, and live music events can all run at 25% capacity.

What are the gathering rules for step two?

Outdoor gatherings will expand from 10 to 25 persons when the province goes to step two on Wednesday.

Furthermore, indoor gatherings with a limit of five individuals will be authorized.

Restaurant gathering limitations are also changing, with six individuals being permitted to sit at a table outside, rather than four.

Will shopping centers reopen?

Indoor shopping malls will be allowed to reopen their doors for the second phase of the reopening, but the scene will be altered.

Non-essential stores will be limited to 25% capacity, whereas necessary stores will be able to operate at 50% capacity.





What rules apply to salons?

Personal care providers, such as hair and nail salons, will be authorized to open at 25% capacity on Wednesday.
