Although the Government of Quebec had previously announced that the Bell Centre could only return to full capacity of 21,302 as of March 14, the timeline was changed on Wednesday, which now means the Montreal Canadiens will have full home-ice advantage beginning on March 12.
Along with the ditching of distancing between fans comes the abolishment of the enforcement of vaccine passports at the arena according to a team press release.
This measure will also be gradually phased out provincewide by March 14.
On vous donne TOUS rendez-vous le 12 mars! 🙌
