Regarding restrictions on holding events as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus, the government plans to gradually relax the upper limit of the capacity of the venue by setting a transitional measure for about one month after canceling the state of emergency.

In hosting the event, the government is currently setting a limit on the number of people in the venue in the area subject to the state of emergency, such as half the capacity or less than 5,000 people, and ending by 8:00 pm.



Regarding the response after the declaration was lifted, the government set a transitional measure of about one month and announced a policy to gradually relax the restrictions.



According to this, during the transitional measures, up to 10,000 people will be allowed to enter at sports events and rock concerts with tens of thousands of people who make a loud voice, if the capacity is less than half.



In addition, the holding time will be decided based on the request for shortening the business hours issued to restaurants in each area.



On the other hand, in areas not subject to the declaration, the limit of the capacity of less than half of the capacity for sporting events of the same scale will be maintained until the end of April.



On top of that, if new research data is obtained and the infection continues to converge, it will be reviewed.
