A sign on the door at the Lot Club urges patrons to wear a mask. Inside the establishment, the dance floor has been closed since March and physical distancing is encouraged.
The owner Deepansh Mohan shares that he has been doing what he can to keep people coming to his club safe.
Outbreaks at three Saskatoon night clubs have led to new restrictions being placed on clubs in that city. It has also meant tighter restrictions for night clubs across the province. Mohan is worried that the restrictions will put a strain on his business, which employs up to 15 people.
Starting Friday, all night clubs in Saskatchewan are required to only have 6 patrons per table, discourage mingling and encourage physical distancing. Karaoke and dance floors are also prohibited.
In Saskatoon, night clubs are also prohibited from serving alcohol after 10 PM and must be closed by 11 PM. According to Saskatchewan’s chief medical officer, people can still head out for a night on the town but need to do it safely.
