England’s new Tier System allows business events with up to 30

Tuesday, October 20, 2020

According to the U.K. Government’s new Tier System all indoor business and training events for up to 30 people can continue to take place in all levels across England, only if they adhere to approved COVID-secure guidance.

However, venues and organisers in Tier 3 areas, the highest alert level, have been advised to check with their Local Authority in advance of any such events. Events taking place in Tier 1 and 2 areas do not need to consult their Local Authority.

The advice from the Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) stated that in very high alert level areas, additional restrictions may apply depending on discussions between central and local government. It also mentioned that businesses should find out what additional measures would apply if they are in an area with the‘Local Alert Level: Very High.’

It has also been informed that if delegates are travelling from a Tier 2 to Tier 3 area, they will need to follow the rules outlined by the Government in Tier 3. The total number of people allowed in any one event space would be 30, including any staff or service suppliers.
