Lights-on: A Guide to the Safe Re-Opening of Live Performances

“ This Venue Reopening Guide is a collaborative effort of live entertainment organizations and individuals that reviewed existing published materials to build a resource that is relevant to venues in Toronto. As a community, the number one priority is the safety of our artists, employees and patrons. We understand that it may take time to reopen, and each venue has unique needs, but we want to help the community prepare for this work. 

We are experiencing a staged approach to reopening as public health regulations change. It will be important that you remain aware of the public health regulation changes and modify your operations accordingly. While we can plan, we cannot predict when the sector will be able to reopen with audiences in attendance. Moreover, we recognize that each venue will need to determine its own capacity for reopening, largely based on its ability to ensure physical distancing for patrons.”
