Music and sports fans in Buffalo will soon be able to attend more events at stadiums.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo says fans may be able to attend more in-person events as early as Tuesday.

Stadiums with a capacity of over 10,000 will be required to enforce a ten percent capacity limit, assigned, socially distanced seating, and proof of a negative COVID-19 test three days before events.

Venues will be required to submit a proposal to the New York State Department of Health in advance.

This news comes after the Buffalo Bills allowed fans to attend games in person at Bills Stadium last month.
