The organizers of public events across the state and country are in a bit of a holding pattern as COVID-19 infection rates and restrictions continue to drop but uncertainty continues.
On March 25, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey repealed many of the restrictions he imposed by executive orders earlier in the COVID-19 pandemic. Included in his order was a repeal of his requirement that events or gatherings of 50 people needed special approval of local governments. These events, he said, should continue to follow safe practices and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations, including physical distancing.
