Weddings, funerals and stadium limits to grow as Qld winds back restrictions

Queensland will further wind back gathering restrictions for weddings, funerals, businesses and major events as the state records 60 days without a locally acquired case of COVID-19.

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announced the changes on Friday, which would allow gatherings in private homes up to 50, and indoor capacity limits for buildings to grow to one person for every two square metres.

To take effect from 4pm on Tuesday, November 17, the changes would also allow open air stadiums to operate at 100 per cent capacity and a doubling of the guest limit at weddings and funerals to 200 people and.

“Now this means the Cauldron can be filled to 100 per cent capacity for State of Origin next Wednesday night,” Ms Palaszczuk said.

More to come.
