Vaccine Requirements Are Becoming Standard At Bluegrass Music Events
It appears that vaccine requirements are becoming standard at most bluegrass events. Due to the spread of the Delta Variant of the Covid 19 Virus, bluegrass fans are increasingly unwilling to attend bluegrass events where unvaccinated persons are also permitted to attend. On a forward-going basis, proof of vaccine status will be required to attend most events.
Covid 19 Vaccines are FREE and WIDELY AVAILABLE. The vaccine process requires one to two months to complete, so advance planning is advised if you are planning to attend any live, in-person bluegrass music events in the future.
