Just last week, California unveiled plans to reopen June 15, much to the excitement of the tourism and event industry. Beginning June 1, Nevada will also be operating at full capacity, said Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak.
Both Sisolak and Steve Hill, president and CEO of Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, believe the vaccines have played a large role is moving forward, with Sisolak saying their introduction “changed the game.”
“The wide availability and rapid administration of vaccines will allow our valued events industry to reconvene with confidence and in its entirety,” Hill said. “Las Vegas will continue providing the gold standard for health, wellness and safety precautions for the benefit of its workforce, the community and our visitors.”

As of May 1, Sisolak says the state will leave social distancing mandates up to individual counties. In doing so, the governor made it known the state is aware some counties may choose to go slower. “Each county in Nevada is unique and has different factors to consider: rural or urban settings, community transmission rates in the area, and vaccine administration, among a few,” he says.
