Governor Hogan and Secretary of Health Robert Neall recently issued orders updating safe capacity limits for outdoor sporting and entertainment venues, while maintaining face covering requirements and strict public health protocols. From the Governor’s press release,
“With our key health metrics low and stable, we are taking steps to allow more spectators, including fans of the Baltimore Ravens and the Washington Football Team, to safely attend games in the stands,” said Governor Hogan. “It remains important to continue following all of the mitigation measures and public health protocols that keep us safe, including wearing masks and practicing physical distancing.”
The governor’s order limits spectators at outdoor sporting venues to 10% of total capacity, including at M&T Bank Stadium and FedEx Field. It also limits occupancy to 10% for outdoor entertainment venues that have a total capacity greater than 2,500. Face coverings are required at all outdoor sporting and entertainment venues and social distancing protocols must be followed. Social gatherings at the venue—such as tailgating—are prohibited.
