Special insurance may be necessary for party promoters and producers hoping to stage events, says president of the Entertainment Association of Barbados (EAB), Rudy Maloney.
That type of safety net, he adds, may be needed as it becomes more challenging to host events as the dynamics of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to change rapidly.
Maloney said this was in light of the reintroduction of the daily 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew, as well as restrictions on social gatherings and fetes following a recent spike in COVID-19 cases.
“The industry understands that the health of Barbadians and visitors is of utmost importance, but one of the things we discussed [recently] is that this makes it difficult to plan events. Events can be held at any time but the majority of events are held at night and people come out at night, but we are under curfew again. (TG)
