Enhanced COVID-19 protocols will be in place at Creation Entertainment’s 55-Year Mission Star Trek convention in Las Vegas
Creation Entertainment’s 55-Year Mission Tour 2021 in Las Vegas
AUGUST 2, 2021 - While Creation Entertainment continues to plan for its in-person 55-Year Mission Las Vegas convention from August 11th - 15th, it has announced new health and safety protocols for attendees due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and increased cases of the Delta variant of the virus.
TrekMovie is reporting that all attendees will be required to show proof of vaccination or, if unvaccinated, a negative COVID-19 test taken within three days of attending the convention. Specially-colored wristbands will be issued to indicate an attendee’s status. For those who are unvaccinated and attending Tuesday – Thursday, you’ll need to get retested on Friday, on a first-come, first-serve basis, subject to availability. Those testing positive will be eligible for a refund. The tests will be provided by Creation.
All attendees of the convention will also be required to wear masks, since the State of Nevada has imposed a mask mandate in a number of its counties, including Clark County, which includes Las Vegas.
Other protocols will also be in place for photo opportunities, autograph sessions and meet-and-greets with celebrities, such as a “no-touch” policy and the use of plexiglass barriers.
