The news comes on the day in which a Government minister confirmed there were no Covid-19 outbreaks at non-socially distanced mass events piloted in England. Addressing the House of Commons, tourism minister Nigel Huddleston, under whom the events industry falls, said: “Although we are not yet in a position to publish the full report, I can assure the House that post-event data closely monitored have not shown any evidence of the events causing outbreaks.” Nine events were piloted in total, including a 500-person business event, the FA Cup final in front of 21,000 fans at Wembley, a live audience of 4,000 at the Brit awards, a nightclub in Liverpool which hosted 3,000, as well as three 10km outdoor runs for 6,000 athletes and spectators.
