Updates on the latest Covid-19 events guidelines can be found below.
BVEP UPDATE 18 MARCH
Show rounds and site visits
DCMS have advised that the Cabinet Office have agreed that after March 29 – when the stay at home restriction is lifted – visiting a business event venue for the purpose of viewing the venue for a future booking for a work-based event (even if the venue is otherwise closed) is permitted if this cannot be reasonably done from home.
Safety guidelines for workplaces should be adhered to. Viewings where there is not a permitted exemption for work purposes or otherwise, should not be taking place in closed venues at this time.
In practice that means venue viewings for leisure activities is being treated differently to venue viewings for business activities as the latter is permitted under the guidelines, whereas the former is still restricted.
Guidance will be updated in due course.
