Dancing Allowed In Adelaide Venues Again As COVID Restrictions Ease

Venues across South Australia will come alive this Friday as COVID restrictions across the state continue to ease.

As ABC reports, Premier Steven Marshall announced at a press conference that dancing would be permitted at certain venues from Friday.

“There’s been a lot of discussion regarding dancing in recent months and we are now moving to ease some restrictions,” Marshall said.

“If you have a venue with more than 1,000 patrons, you will still need to use the COVID management plan, but if you’ve got a smaller venue of under 200 patrons dancing is permitted, as long as you can abide by the normal restrictions: QR codes, COVID Marshals, 1 [person] per 2 square metres.

“In venues between 200 and 1,000, dancing is also permitted on a dance floor, a designated area for up to 50 people at a time. And again, they will need to abide by those local restrictions.”

Over in NSW, Premier Gladys Berejiklian has confirmed that from March 17 patrons will be able to stand and drink indoors at pubs.
