Live Nation to Require Vaccination or Negative Test at All Venues, Festivals

The new guidelines go into effect Oct. 4, 2021

Live Nation will require all artists, crew and attendees show proof of full vaccination or a negative test at their venues and upcoming festivals starting Oct. 4.

The concert giant previously announced that it would be up to the artists whether to enforce the mandate. Live Nation further clarified guidelines mandate a requirement for all shows at their venues starting in October, where permitted by law. Live Nation has also developed best practices for artists to request these policies at third party venues, the company added.

“Vaccines are going to be your ticket back to shows, and, as of Oct. 4, we will be following the model we developed for Lollapalooza and requiring this for artists, fans and employees at Live Nation venues and festivals everywhere possible in the US,” said Live Nation President and CEO Michael Rapino.
