D.C.’s LGBTQ bar and nightclub owners are thrilled at the District’s plans to lift capacity restrictions, as the city slowly emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Starting May 21, restaurants will begin operating at full capacity, while bars and nightclubs will be at 50% capacity. Other communal gathering places, including gyms, pools, and offices, will be operating at full capacity as of that date, and there will be no restrictions on private house parties.
