Movie theater chains, including AMC, Regal and Cinemark, will no longer require fully vaccinated guests to wear face masks.
In line with CDC guidelines, masks will be optional for inoculated patrons and will be “strongly encouraged” for all others. For non-vaccinated customers, masks can be removed when eating and drinking inside the auditorium. All employees at AMC, Regal and Cinemark locations will still be required to sport a face mask.
Cinema chains are continuing to enforce other COVID-19 safety measures, like social distancing and reduced capacity, as well as enhanced cleaning sanitization protocols, to help stop the spread of the virus.
“Consistent with the latest CDC guidance and following consultation with public health experts, AMC Theatres guests who are fully vaccinated are no longer required to wear face coverings at AMC locations, unless it is mandated by state or local ordinances,” AMC said in a statement. “Guests who are not fully vaccinated are asked to continue wearing masks. All other aspects of the AMC Safe & Clean policies and procedures, including seat blocking, remain in place at this time.”
