California is open to tourists and large events can take place again

With one of the nation’s highest vaccination rates and lowest case rates, California is open to welcome visitors. 

Large events (over 10,000 people outdoors or 5,000 indoors), including theme parks and large sporting events, may have some restrictions. Attendees should check guidelines with event operators when buying tickets or making reservations. 

Masks are required for everyone in indoor public settings in some counties, including Los Angeles, and recommended by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control for indoor public settings in most of the state.

For more guidance, here is a collection of California’s local and regional tourism offices.
