Why Is This So Hard for Us?
Reopening During the New Abnormal

Reopening Safely and Legal Obligations


Guest Host: Steve Adelman, Event Safety Alliance

Within just a few weeks after the COVID-19 pandemic shuttered live events in theUnited States, robust treatises such as the Event Safety Alliance Reopening Guide started to be released about how to mitigate the new risks in a reasonably healthy and safe way.  ESA_logo.jpgA consensus quickly emerged around the importance of three things: social distancing, face covering, and hand washing. Yet, anywhere Americans were allowed to exercise their own discretion, they abused it, forcing events to stay closed far longer than necessary. 

This session will explore what we have learned from these self-inflicted wounds, and how smart event professionals can apply that knowledge to safely hold events during this “new abnormal.”
