Flexible seating plan and wearing masks
In the currently valid Senate ordinance, the number of participants permitted for events in closed rooms is limited to a maximum of 650 seats. Since the specified distance requirements of 1.5 metres must be observed at all times, the Hamburg State Opera cannot make use of this maximum number.
