Massachusetts will ease some Covid-19 restrictions on Monday.
It will be another step towards normalcy in Massachusetts Monday when the state enters its next phase of reopening.
One of the biggest changes: large indoor and outdoor stadiums like Fenway Park, the Garden, and Gillette Stadium will be able to “up” their capacities from 12 to 25 percent, making tickets more accessible.
Theme parks and outdoor water parks will be able to open at half capacity, and indoor singing will be allowed with distancing. Road races can also continue again.
Under this next phase, both youth and adult amateur sports tournaments will be allowed again.
