  • When live music eventually returns, concert-goers may have to verify that they either received a coronavirus vaccine or tested negative for COVID-19.
  • Ticketmaster is currently exploring a system whereby concertgoers could have their health information relayed directly to the company for verification.
  • In a best-case scenario, concerts likely won't return until late 2021 or early 2022.

In light of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, it may be a long time before attending concerts is safe again. And even when concerts eventually do come back -- which likely won't happen until 2022 or late 2021 -- the experience is likely to be a tad different in a post-coronavirus world.

According to a recent report from Billboard, events put on through Ticketmaster will likely require attendees to verify that they've tested negative for the coronavirus or received a coronavirus vaccine. The process for how such a verification process would work remains a work in progress, but the report relays it will likely involve smartphones and the participation of three partner companies.
