Tenerife remains at alert level 2, nightlife venues can reopen from June 18th

The spokesman for the Canary Islands Government, Julio Perez, has announced in the press conference after today’s Governing Council meeting that all the islands will remain at the alert levels they are in, meaning that Tenerife and Lanzarote will continue at alert level 2 due to its epidemiological situation, for at least one more week, and their data continues to worry the Government.

He also announced that nightlife (nightclubs, discos, fun pubs), hospitality (bars, restaurants etc), and activities such as bingo halls or casinos may open on the islands until 2:00am, meeting certain capacity and occupancy requirements, as well as registering attendees., and added that this does not mean that the regulations for capacity and prevention of the coronavirus do not have to be respected.

In this sense, events for up to 750 people will be allowed on those islands that are at level 1, without having to request prior permission from the health authorities, with the organizer of the activity taking responsibility for compliance with the health measures.

The new measures will be published in the Official Gazette of the Canary Islands and come into force with their publication, except for the opening of outdoor nightlife, which is established as of Friday June 18th, with current rules for use of terraces being applicable.
