Latest arrangements for LCSD public services

********************************************

The Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) announced today (October 28) that in view of the latest situation of COVID-19, the limit on the number of audiences/users in each facility of LCSD performance venues will be relaxed starting from October 30 (Friday), with seating capacity to be increased from 50 to 75 per cent of the original. Consecutive seats will be limited to four. For details, please refer to the notifications of individual venues. The limit on the number of users in other leisure and cultural facilities such as public swimming pools and public libraries will also be suitably relaxed on the same day.

For public programmes to be held at museums, including the Cinema of the Hong Kong Film Archive, the limit on the number of audiences/users and other arrangements will be the same as the above-mentioned performance venues, with capacity increased to 75 per cent.

Visitors to facilities of performance venues and museums will need to use hand sanitiser and will be subject to temperature checks before admission. They also need to wear their own masks. Children under 12 will only be allowed to enter museums and exhibition facilities when accompanied by an adult. Enhanced measures including cleaning and disinfection between sessions will be conducted.

The LCSD will continue to monitor the situation closely and review the arrangements in a timely manner.
