What you can do in a Phase Two area?

• For walking and physical exercise – all citizens under the age of 70 can take walks and exercise during the day (as updated above). The time slot of 10 am to 12 noon and 7-8 pm is supposed to be reserved for people aged over 70.
• Up to 15 people can now meet for social gatherings, either outside or in someone’s home (also a restaurant and bar terraces – see below), but social distancing measures should still be respected between people who do not already live together.
• Up to 20 people can participate in nature tourism activities together.
• Citizens are allowed to move freely within their province (or island), including to their second homes.
• Shops and stores can open independently of their size, but with capacity limited to 40%. There should also be priority timetables for the over 65s.
• Restaurant and bars can now re-open their interior dining areas, apart from nightclubs and music bars, provided capacity is limited to 40%. Easting inside can only take place if sitting at a table, or groups of tables, and ideally via prior appointment. Self-service at a bar is not permitted. Terraces for cafés and restaurants will continue at 50% of capacity.
• Open-air markets are allowed with a third of normal stands.
• Hotels and tourist accommodations can re-open their common areas, provided capacity is kept to 30%.
• Cinemas, theatres, auditoriums and culture venues can re-open, provided that seats are pre-assigned and capacity is limited to 30%.
• Open-air concerts are allowed, but the public must be seated, observing social distancing, with capacity at 30% and limited to 400 people
• Places of worship can have 50% capacity.
• Funerals can take place with a limit of 25 people if outside, and 15 people in closed spaces.

Whilst schools across Spain will officially not open again until September, Sánchez also said that from Phase Two of the easing of lockdown measures, some institutions might be able to open to host some face-to-face activities with students. Again, this will depend upon the progress of each region.

The activities could include ‘reinforcement lessons’, students sitting university entrance exams, as well as ensuring that children under the age of six can go to school if parents have to go to work and have no one to leave their children with.

Where students do attend schools during Phase Two, the groups will be limited to a maximum of 15 students.
