Beginning March 14, a pass demonstrating full vaccination against Covid will no longer be required to access cinemas in France.

Nor will it be obligatory for entry to theaters, bars, restaurants, amusement parks, gyms or other leisure venues. Prime Minister Jean Castex announced the upcoming changes Thursday afternoon local time. “The situation is getting better thanks to our collective efforts,” Castex said on TF1’s mid-day news program, “We are therefore going to proceed with a new phase of easing measures.” Since it came into effect in late January, the vaccination pass has been contested by some in France.

It replaced the health pass which certified either full vaccination or a recent negative Covid test. When the pass requirements were initially introduced, there had been talk they would remain in effect until the summer.
