VERONA, N.Y. — Beginning Friday, Feb. 18, Turning Stone’s Exit 33 nightlife venues will no longer require guests to provide proof of vaccination for entry, however the requirement remains for the casino’s two performance venues.
Oneida Nation Enterprises updated the policy as COVID-19 cases in the area have declined. Venues no longer requiring proof of vaccination are Tin Rooster, The Gig, Turquoise Tiger, and Atrium Bar.
As of Feb. 14, Oneida County reported 50 new COVID cases for a total of 1,005 active cases.
Vaccination protocols remain in effect for all guests attending shows in Turning Stone’s Event Center or The Showroom due to ongoing contractual requirements of the artists performing.
Last week, Oneida Nation Enterprises lifted its face-mask requirement for all of its properties including Turning Stone, Point Place Casino, and YBR Casino & Sports Book. That came after Gov. Kathy Hochul ended the statewide mask-or-test mandate on businesses, effective Feb. 10.
