New York (77WABC) – Concert promoter and venue operator Live Nation will require all attendees, artists, and crewmembers to show proof of full vaccination or a negative test at their venues and upcoming festivals starting October 4.

“Vaccines are going to be your ticket back to shows, and as of October 4th we will be following the model we developed for Lollapalooza and requiring this for artists, fans and employees at Live Nation venues and festivals everywhere possible in the US,” Live Nation president and CEO Michael Rapino said in a statement to Rolling Stone Friday.

The move comes after the company originally said it would leave the decision whether to require the shots up to individual artists. Previously, Live Nation required vaccinations at Chicago’s Lollapalooza music festival that took place from July 29 to August 1.

The company added that the new rule will only be in effect “where permitted by law”.
