The San Francisco Giants are going to welcome back fans to the stadium for the home opener on April 9th! The City of San Francisco has approved up to 22% fan Capacity. The city's public health order will be requiring COVID-19 tests or full vaccinations from the fans, who will be socially distanced and wearing face coverings.
According to a press release, the giants will be requiring the following from their fans:
Each fan in attendance, 12 years and older, will be required to take a COVID-19 test with negative results or provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination, in order to gain entry. (Children under 12 are not required to provide negative test results or vaccination proof.) If testing, the Giants strongly encourage fans to take a PCR-type test rather than a rapid antigen test.
Test results need to be received within 72 hours of the first game that they plan to attend of a homestand. Fans can present their negative Covid tests two ways:
- Fans 18 or older may utilize the CLEAR’s Health Pass to securely link and confirm negative COVID-19 test results for a seamless entry to the game. Health Pass is a free service on the CLEAR mobile app, which connects a person’s verified identity to COVID-19 related information to help reduce public health risk. The Giants strongly encourage fans to take advantage of CLEAR’s Health Pass before arriving at Oracle Park in order to help ensure a smooth entry.
— OR —
- Fans can bring an electronic or paper copy of their negative COVID-19 test results at the entrance gates.
- Fully vaccinated fans should bring a paper or electronic copy of their completed vaccination card to the game. (Full vaccination is defined as completion of the two-dose regimen of Pfizer or Moderna vaccines or one dose of Johnson & Johnson vaccine administered two weeks or more in advance of the game to be attended.)
