Lois Dupre, President CDC's Guiding Principles A gathering refers to a planned or spontaneous event, indoors or out- doors, with a small number of peo- ple participating or a large number of people in attendance such as a community event or gathering, con- cert, festival, conference, parade, wedding, or sporting event. The more people an individual in- teracts with at a gathering and the longer that interaction lasts, the higher the potential risk of becom- ing infected with COVID-19 and COVID-19 spreading. The higher the level of communi- ty transmission in the area that the gathering is being held, the higher the risk of COVID-19 spreading during a gathering. The size of an event or gather- ing should be determined based on state, local, territorial or tribal safe- ty laws and regulations. The risk of COVID-19 spreading at events and gatherings increases as follows: Lowest risk: Virtual-only activi- ties, events, and gatherings. More risk: Smaller outdoor and in-person gatherings in which indi- viduals from different households remain spaced at least 6 feet apart, wear masks, do not share objects, and come from the same local area (e.g., community, town, city, or county). Higher risk: Medium-sized in- person gatherings that are adapt- ed to allow individuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and with attendees coming from outside the local area. Highest risk: Large in-person gatherings where it is difficult for in- dividuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and attendees travel from outside the local area.
