Nevada governor Steve Sisolak announced changes to capacity limits at the end of September. The changes allow for venues with over 2,500 seats to operate with seating in groups of 250, with additional capacity allowed if approved by state and local health officials.
All casinos in the state were forced to cancel entertainment for almost eight months due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, with regulations banning events introduced in mid-March. However, following the reopening of Nevada’s land-based casinos in June, restrictions have been relaxed further to allow entertainment shows to return from next month.
"After eight months, it’s time to bring entertainment back to the Entertainment Capital of the World. While there is still a long road in our city’s recovery, the reintroduction of these shows is an important first step,” said George Kliavkoff, MGM Resorts’ President of Entertainment and Sports
“November 6 is going to feel very special as we welcome back team members and guests and bring the curtains up for that first time," Kliavkoff added.
