So it’s come to that time when it’s pretty safe to say that the US won’t be opening it’s borders by the time this festival happens.

I was so looking forward to this festival so I’m absolutely gutted.

Has anyone in the UK or EU already contacted the organisers about the chance of refunds? Wondering if given the circumstances they will kindly offer refunds.

I wouldn't panic yet....there is a vaccine push and the wave of infection will likely start to drop soon

I think there will be a big update soon about allowing double vaxxed UK/Euro countries back into the US.

It looks like there will be a move toward requiring foreign visitors to be vaccinated. https://apnews.com/article/lifestyle-health-travel-coronavirus-pandemic-a312ebaf72844c5b75246fb10b0f2ba7?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP&utm_campaign=SocialFlow

No problem with this... if you aren't vaxxed and you're going to a festival it's a stupid move

Gotta wonder if by the time the shows happen if they require all guests to show vaxx or test proof like they are doing in NJ.

I have a feeling this will happen & I am all for it.

If it happens, I'll happily take my money back and the powers that be who decided to mandate that can kindly F off.

Hopefully the doobers will still be coming my way!

I have faith in Jeff and the boys that there won't be any changes to the admission policy and they'll let us adults make our own decisions regarding getting jabbed or not, wearing a mask or not, and ultimately coming to the show or not (based on how we feel about the bug and about any mandates that may or may not be in place). Mahalo!

Is this fest by Live Nation? curious when they will announce the COVID policy. It looks like most Live Nation fests are doing this. Isn't Sea.Hear Fest Live Nation?

ComeToTX · August 2021

Live Nation announced Friday that they will allow touring artists to choose whether to implement mandates for vaccinations and negative Covid tests for their upcoming concerts.

JOEJOEJOE · August 2021

Ohana is a Live Nation event. The vax/test requirement may be a bit more complicated to sort out since the festival is held on state property.

It's in Orange County, correct?
How strict are they compared to the other parts of California?
and how is being on state property different than the other fests?
I'm sure they will have this policy, but I was just curious.

If you are going to a music festival unvaxxed you are asking for trouble....tons of cases coming out of Milwaukee outdoor crowd from NBA and you'll see Lolla too. It's playing with fire if not vaxxed....GUARANTEED there will be virus being spread at Ohana, can't prevent it with that many people.

Um, it depends? More conservative than the SF Bay area, less conservative than rural parts of the state. I think that while OC was historically seen as a GOP stronghold, with the 2018 or 2020 elections I think all of their congressional representatives are Democrats.

On the third hand, the "we only serve the unvaccinated" pasta restaurant is in Huntington Beach (a source of embarrassment to the rest of the region) and there seem to have been a lot of anti-maskers causing scenes in OC over the past year.

Yes, OC

OC is pretty lax in their covid measures.

Events held on government property usually have more strict policies to be followed.

rival9500 · August 2021

I hope that between now and Ohana that a better way to prove vaccine status is created. Seems the technology should exist for such a thing that wouldn’t have any HIPAA violations that would stop the fake vaccine card carrying anti vaxxers from infecting others.

Californians now have access to a digital health record/ QR code from the state health dept. There are other apps available. This was published the other day: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/07/31/covid-vaccine-card-phone/

<<The term vaccine passport may be out of fashion, but you still might have more digital options than you realize. Now states including California, Colorado, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York and Utah offer portals or apps to download fully authenticated vaccination information, and more are on the way. And millions across the United States have access to digital records directly from Walmart, CVS, Walgreens and others.>>

<<

Download an official digital health record

Use this: CommonPass, Excelsior Pass, Clear.

Pros: It’s 100 percent verified and can help if you’ve lost your physical CDC card.

Cons: Every state and provider does it differently, and setup can be complicated.

Most states and health-care providers have databases of who has received the vaccine. Increasingly they’re opening them up to citizens so they can download a digital record — a.k.a. one that can’t be easily faked.

These records can take the form of a link to your pharmacy’s website or a QR code you download. California helped lead the way by introducing digital health records in June, and now they’re available from at least six states (and counting) as well as at Walmart, CVS and Walgreens and health-care providers using medical records from Epic and Cerner.>>
