MAYOR WALSH ANNOUNCES BOSTON TO MOVE INTO
MODIFIED PHASE 4, STEP 1 OF THE MASSACHUSETTS REOPENING PLAN
BOSTON - Friday,
March 19, 2021 - Mayor Martin J. Walsh today announced that the City of
Boston will move into a modified Phase 4, Step 1 of the state’s Reopening Massachusetts plan, effective Monday, March 22, 2021. The
City will allow additional activities, businesses and venues to resume or
expand operations in light of improved trends in COVID-19 cases and
vaccinations, as well as the state’s continued effort to expand eligibility
and access to the vaccine. Boston’s measured approach to reopening
aims to mitigate the pandemic’s economic impact while prioritizing public
health. The City of Boston will not advance beyond the reopening steps
outlined today until the citywide testing positivity rate stays below 2.75
percent, as calculated by the Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC), for
two consecutive weeks.
“Since the beginning
of the pandemic, our response to COVID-19 has prioritized public health,
while recognizing the need to protect the economic wellbeing of our
businesses and residents,” said Mayor Walsh. “As our city reopens, we need
everyone to recommit themselves to following the public health guidance.
It’s incumbent on each of us to stay vigilant, even as we reopen more parts
of our economy. It’s thanks to everyone’s cooperation throughout the
pandemic that we’re able to open further.”
In Boston, all
private gatherings and events will remain subject to current capacity
limits of 10 people indoors and 25 people outdoors. Public gatherings in
Boston may increase to 60 people indoors and 100 people outdoors, lower
than the Commonwealth's limits of 100 and 150 people, respectively. In
alignment with the Commonwealth, the following industries in the City of
Boston may reopen or resume on Monday, March 22, subject to certain
capacity limits and safety measures:
·Indoor
performance venues, such as concert halls, theaters, and other seated
indoor performance spaces can open at 50 percent capacity, with a
500-person maximum capacity.
·Indoor
recreational activities with greater potential for contact, such as escape
rooms, laser tag, roller skating, trampolines, and obstacle courses can
open at 50 percent capacity.
·Approved
live entertainment may resume in restaurants, except singing. Brass and
woodwind instruments are discouraged.
·Indoor
and outdoor stadiums, arenas, ballparks or venues with capacity of 5,000 people
or more can host spectators at 12 percent capacity. These venues must
submit a COVID Response Plan to the City of Boston’s Licensing Board before
beginning to host events.
·Overnight
summer camps will be allowed to operate.
·Exhibition
and convention halls can reopen, subject to gathering limits and event
rules.
·Dance
floors will be permitted at weddings and other approved events only.
The following
activities and businesses will not be allowed to reopen until further

As of March 11, the
City was averaging 152.6 COVID-19 positive cases per day, with a citywide
positivity rate of 3.5 percent. More detailed data related to COVID-19 in
