Covid Policy

The following policy applies to all events at Red Hot Blues & BBQ 2024. This policy supersedes other Capital Blues policies where they may diverge.

Masks optional

Masking for Red Hot Blues & BBQ 2024 is optional and not required.

Negative covid test required for entry

You must provide proof (such as a photo) of a negative covid test administered 48 hours or less before checking in. Records of test results will be deleted seven days after the event. There are two ways do so:

  1. Send a photo of your negative covid test sent to capitalblues.info@gmail.com 48 hours or less before checking in.
  2. Take a test at check-in (a limited number of tests will be available) or bring your own to take before entry.

If you feel sick…

We will reimburse full registration cost to anyone who tests positive for covid (or other similar infections), feels ill, or displays flu-like symptoms within 7 days prior to arrival. In such a case, please contact us at info@capitalblues.org as soon as possible.

Additional safety measures

Capital Blues will also take the following actions:

  • Masks and hand sanitizer will be provided free-of-charge at check-in for all events.
  • All staff and volunteers handling food will be required to wear masks at all times while on duty.
  • We will attempt to improve ventilation in all event spaces, including addition of fans and air filters where practical.

Logistical details and directions to follow. We reserve the right to change or update this policy as needed.
