Live Nation updates Covid-19 policy to require proof of vaccination or negative test at venues and festivals

-19 policy to require all artists, crew and attendees show proof of full vaccination or a negative test at their venues and upcoming festivals.whether to enforce the mandate. However, with the continued spread of the Delta variant, Live Nation instituted the stricter guidelines Friday to make the mandate a requirement for all shows at their venues starting in October, where permitted by law.

“Vaccines are going to be your ticket back to shows, and as of October 4th we will be following the model we developed for Lollapalooza and requiring this for artists, fans and employees at Live Nation venues and festivals everywhere possible in the US,” Live Nation president and CEO Michael Rapino said in a statement Friday.

Additionally, all Live Nation employees must be vaccinated by October 4th in order to visit any of the company’s offices, events or venues.

Just attempted to attend our last event through 'Live Nation' Severe electrical storm in the area Bristow, VA. Concert was supposed to start at 7:30 and got there at 7 this evening when the gates were supposed to open at 6.

It’s awesome when they tell you the day before the show in a city that’s out of rapid covid tests 🙄 Nashville

この方法か、いっそ抗原検査所では無く、ワクチン接種会場を作り啓蒙活動などやれば良かったのでは、、YouTubeで見てて、アーティストのパフォーマンス良いだけに、あとちょっとの努力を求めてしまう。。大好きなフェスを様々な人が批判し、心が痛い。。。 フジロック フジロック2021

Vaccinated people can still contract & spread Covid... why do people act like that isn’t happening?

It's so amusing how people are replying to this as if everyone has to be vaccinated to attend a show. You don't-'OR a negative test.'

😡 More than willing to get a test..but so should the vaccinated since they can still get sick and carry virus

LiveNation I will NOT!! I refuse. I will sell every ticket I got and never go to another show. Funny how people scream discrimination when it's something they don't agree with but this, they turn the other cheek.

They should be prepared to lose a lot of money.

Probably make for a way better crowd. Sounds good

Thank you !!

Go ahead and try to enforce this mandate after fans have purchased tickets for events after your effective date. I hope thst you are sued and put put of business.

Between Live Nation and AEG that’s pretty much every concert in the United States. Great move

sebastianbach The vacc'd are the ones spreading to the unvacc'd.

sebastianbach See ya... hope the artists all fuckin starve. Not getting any of my $ no more.

sebastianbach EVERIBODY GETS THE SHOT THEN YOU CAN GET THE CONSERT PRONTO FOR A BETTER FUTURE FOR OUR CHILDREN WITH ALL MY LOVE FROM ATHENS GREECE.

The amusing part is that the same people that will get the fake vaccine cards are the ones that scream about undocumented people having fake documentation papers.

Business is business. Ut's so dramatic...

Very concerning. We are seeing fully vaccinated people dying from Covid in Australia. The Delta strain is no joke.

Good. As it should be. AEG is on board, too. Props to JasonIsbell for standing up for the fans, crew and venues and pushing for safety protocols. None of us can afford another shut down - financially or mentally.

Looking in your direction, usopen

Went to a concert last week thinking this was already in place. Vax cards and masks with us ...really not a big deal 🤷‍♀️

So crazy that a year ago everyone was saying how they’d “give anything just to be able to go see live music”…. Now, half you jackasses won’t even get two shots and bitch that artists are finding a way to safely get back on the road while protecting themselves and their fans-smh

good

More of this please. Private businesses will lead the way. Exclude the anti-vaxxers and move on.

Caren329 How are they confirming that the proof is real? People are already using fake vaccine cards to get into venues that are supposedly only for vaccinated people

All that Alcohol consumption Covid couldn't survive that lol!

American Apartheid... Let them starve like France....

October 4 is too late.

Good, responsible people who took the vaccine should be allowed to feel comfortable

What about shows before Oct 4th?

Excellent.

Hopefully they won’t be cancelled by October 😕

Good! Hope all venues get on board with this.

They should, it’s a health crisis!🙌 I’am vaccinated and I got tickets for November 13th show, I will probably wear a mass because it will be fall just to have extra protection but we can still rock out Sebastian🤟🥰

sebastianbach Derp

RoArquette or just stop having concerts during a global pandemic

let's see how long venues and festivals last with only 50% participation. Even the vaxxed won't go. Let's do it in sports venues as well. nothing more exciting than seeing billionaires who own sports teams squirm

Good

Oh puhlease.

Just need a system to handle the longer lines. Just got back from 4 Phish shows in 5 nights in Alpharetta, GA and Nashville. Was a blast. Im vaccinated. Most big acts are now requiring such anyways so Livenation just following along

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Great!

Hey MarcBroussard, are you gonna boycott playing any LiveNation venues?

MAGAs stay home.

Pretty easy 🤷🏽‍♂️. Let’s get the show on the road 🤘🏾

Good, keep us others as safe as possible and the artists and their crews working. I'm for it. Vaccinated and willing to still wear a mask.

This includes aclfestival right?!?!

Amen👍🏻

Awesome!

Fuck them, their tests & their vaccines.

I get a dopamine hit every time I read one of these headlines.

🍿 👋🤣

bowerypresents ForestHillsStdm mymorningjacket

chrisfralic Inadequate. Too little too late. Time for both.

I think that we’ve proven that vaxxed people can carry Delta, we should be doing rapid testing

Good call.

Thank You!!

Urge or Make?

What good will that do when people are still extremely close to each other? I mean have they learned nothing from lolapalooza

Too little, too late...

Yay!!

I wonder what this means for Florida

ScottWapnerCNBC Basically gets them through the summer concert season. We have 21 live nation concerts through Oct 1st…..

About time.

LFG!!!!

Nope

Nice!

NashvilleCass Oh puhlease

Thank you.

RexChapman See, if you vaccinate, you can have FREEDOM to watch a show or concert! LIVE Nation, not DIE Nation! 🤘🎸🥁🎸🤘 RockOn GetVaccinated GetVaccinatedNow GetVaxxed LIVEnation

Good for them, yhese morons afraid of needle or mask need to get with the program

ScottWapnerCNBC Negative test is a joke

ScottWapnerCNBC Better would be proof of vaccination plus negative same day COVID test.

I think lines to get in may stretch a bit

good.

Will LiveNation ban Alcohol sales to prevent drunk driving as well?

🔥

Wow

Eat shit!!

Thank you! LiveNation

Good!! It is about time! No vax, no play!

Say hello to the false vaccine card industry.

I’d like to get a positive test and then walk in with my vaccine card.

You can still spread covid if fully vaccinated, this is nazi theater
