Nightclubs Become 'Pop-Up' Vaccine Centres

From September 2021 all clubbers will need to have had both vaccine doses in the UK.

Nightclub bosses are opening up their venues to those yet to have a covid vaccine. The 'pop-up' vaccination centres are part of a push by nightlife figure heads like Carl Cox and Safer Sounds to offer the vaccine to as many people as possible - including those who will need to be fully vaccinated for nightclub admission from September 2021 here in the UK.

Vaccine take-up will ensure that, along with the existing measures in place such as ventilation, we can all enjoy music events safely this summer.

Despite it being announced that double vaccines will be an entry requirement for live music events in the UK from September 2021, only 67% of 18-29 year olds have taken up the invitation of a covid vaccine.

There is a rumour that London's Ministry of Sound is planning a huge vaccination party where vaccinations will be supported by headline DJ sets prior to the September rules coming into effect.
