The Associate Directors of Popular Carnival Shows of Uruguay (Daepcu) asked the Events Management of the Municipality of Montevideo (IM) the possibility that the Official Carnival Contest be with him 100% capacity of the Summer Theater, with public only vaccinated against coronavirus, as indicated in a statement.
It would be a universe of 4,400 people approximately, that he could enter with numbered seats in the lower and upper stalls, as he knew The Observer. That would be a change in relation to what happened in the admission test, where the capacity was 55% for admitting vaccinated and unvaccinated people. However, for that instance there were no ticket sales, but it was done with an invited public.
“The reception of the vaccinated public that is intended to be implemented will be in tune with that of large events belonging to the areas of culture, sports and other activities that massively gather the public, both nationally and internationally,” Daecpu said in the letter of this Tuesday.
“Daecpu assumes this responsibility attending multiple reasons and sanitary recommendations, but also an economic reality, which establishes that, strictly referring to the Official Competition of the Summer Theater, the income of the groups would be seriously affected “by lower ticket sales, he added.
In parallel, the Board of Directors is currently working on the issuance of tickets and locations for the next carnival, which will be announced soon, as reported.
