2021-2022 Events

At the moment the rules are moving to simple entry heat test, double vaccination proof and download of a relevant track and trace app.

You will require a QR code from us for contact-less entry. This will be processed at the time of booking.

NOTE: PCR test requirement is relaxed: PCR Test is now only required if your original destination requires it – So if you are a resident of the country the event is held in you do not need one, if you are from a country where the airline does not require it then you do not need one, if you are from a country where the airline or immigration does require it, then you do need one (you will have it or not anyway, we are not in addition to airline requirements).
