As of Oct. 25, indoor sporting venues, concerts, theatres, dance and symphony events will be able to operate at full capacity.
Indoor organized events like weddings and funeral receptions will also be able to have more guests.
All those events are subject to proof-of-vaccination requirements. While guests currently only need to show proof of one shot at those venues, starting Oct. 24, proof of full vaccination will be required.
As well, the restriction that required patrons of restaurants and bars to remain seated will also be lifted, Henry said.
