BATON ROUGE - Following a significant improvement in statistics related to Louisiana's COVID-19 hospitalizations and case counts, Governor John Bel Edwards announced Tuesday (March 2) that the state will move forward to Phase 3, which will bring most COVID restrictions back to where they were last September.
With this move forward in the reopening process, the local tourism industry anticipates that reduced COVID restrictions will draw more visitors to the state.
An increase in visitors means adapting to new coronavirus health and safety guidelines in the venues that will host events.
