2021 Writers Fête Covid-19 Protocols
All persons attending the 2021 festival, including staff and volunteers, must comply with the following health protocols, which have been developed based on current Quebec provincial health regulations:
UPDATE. Although the recent Government of Québec announcement allows 100% capacity as of October 8th, the Wakefield Writers Fête will remain safely spaced as above using approximately 50% capacity.
Dedicated entrances and exits will be clearly marked by signs. Please follow the flow of foot traffic to avoid congestion near the doors.
Hand sanitizer dispensers will be placed throughout the festival venue. Please sanitize and/or wash your hands with soap often. Washrooms and frequently touched surfaces (railings, door handles, etc.) will be cleaned and sanitized on a regular basis.
These guidelines are subject to change based on current public health regulations and recommendations.
- Everyone ages 13 and up must be fully vaccinated and will be required to show valid proof of immunization and photo ID upon arrival.

- Face masks are mandatory indoors but may be removed once the person is seated. Please bring your own mask(s) to wear while at the festival. We will have a limited amount of disposable ones available, if required. If using a disposable mask, please dispose of it properly and do not litter.
- To allow for social distancing, people from the same household should sit together, and there must be at least one empty seat of distance between people from different households.
