Pubs and restaurants have been unable to open indoors since the Welsh government stopped it in December because of rising Covid numbers.
Indoor children s activities like soft play and swimming lessons have also been brought forward to 3 May.
Indoor activities of 15 adults can start on the same day.
First Minister Mark Drakeford said: It is my assessment that the hospitality sector - bars, pubs, restaurants and cafes - will be able to open indoors from May 17, together with all other tourist accommodation, indoor entertainment and attractions.
