Music venues around the country are looking to mitigate the challenges posed by social distancing, reduced capacities, and changing guidelines as they reopen for the first time since March.
With Dolans Warehouse beginning to open again, new measures have been put in place to accommodate socially distanced gigs in this coronavirus era.
We now sell "Tables". A Table is a pod of 4 people. This is to accommodate the strict social distancing measures in place. The four patrons must arrive to the venue together.
They are seated at the venue together and if they wish to order a drink, they can do so with an app. There will be table service only, a cashless bar system and hand sanitizers available. We will observe all government guidelines. All our staff have worn masks since we reopened, and we would ask that you wear your mask upon entry and exit and if you need to use the toilet.
Because of the reduced capacity there are only a limited number of tables per gig. For contact tracing, music venues have an advantage in the sense that they already have a system in place for collecting details through the sale of tickets.
We are so looking forward to our new socially distancing gigs starting with Paddy Dennehy's album launch on Saturday September 26th. The Limerick Jazz Festival is on Sunday September 27th. We look forward to some great comedy gigs with Stephen Mullan, Joanne McNally and Neil Delamere and Lisa Hannigan and Paul Noonan are with us in October and November.
