How the AMAs plan to put on a Covid-safe show, despite a spike in positive test results in L.A.

This means that all dancers will be masked as well, which was not the case at Miami’s Latin Grammys on Thursday night, for example. There is also a limit to how many performers and dancers can be on one stage at any given time, although the spokesperson would not share specific numbers.

Regarding how many stages the AMAs were planning on using, the spokesperson would only say that there will be multiple on site. Separate crews have been put together for each stage, the spokesperson assures, and all crew members are required to socially distance and wear facial coverings at all times in the venue. The AMAs team is also working with “two leading safety companies” on all Covid-19 compliance.

Additionally, there will be a mix of remote performances from artists in other areas of the world. BTS will perform in South Korea, and Dua Lipa will perform in London. “To ensure the safety of the show and the best experience for fans worldwide, we do have a few pre-tapes that are seamlessly integrated into the show,” the spokesperson says.

Some performers have traveled into L.A. from other areas for the show despite the remote-filming option, but the spokesperson insists that all of these people have followed “all safety protocols including pre-travel testing.

Dick Clark Productions successfully produced the Academy of Country Music Awards in September and the Billboard Music Awards in October without incident. However, asearlier this week, multiple AMAs crew members have already tested positive for the virus. “During our routine testing and onboarding process, less than a handful of crew have tested positive,” a representative said at the time.
