Covid update for Spain


Spain Barcelona restaurants reopen on Monday

Cafes and restaurants in Barcelona and other cities in the Spanish region of Catalonia are allowed to open again until 21:30 in the evening. Cinemas, theatres and concert halls are also allowed to reopen with up to half the normal number of visitors.

It is a first step in the regional government's intention to reduce the corona measures, Spanish media report. The hospitality industry had to close in the middle of last month to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Restaurants and bars are only allowed to fill 30 percent of the spots. A maximum of four people per table are allowed on terraces if they keep their distance from each other. Gyms are allowed to reopen with a significant reduction in the number of people.

The curfew in Catalonia from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. will remain in place for the time being, as will travel restrictions previously imposed on residents of the wealthy coastal region.
