ROME (Reuters) – Italy aims to steadily increase the attendance limits at sports stadiums from March 1 in response to an improving coronavirus situation, its ministers for health and sports said on Tuesday.
Health Minister Roberto Speranza and Sports Minister Valentina Vezzali “are working on a first increase,” from March 1, which will see the limits raised to 75% for outside stadiums and 60% for indoor ones, they said in a statement.
Currently there is an attendance ceiling of 50% of stadium capacity outside and 35% inside.
