Upon arrival, guests will receive a COVID-19 screening, and staff members will lead guests to their designated seating area. For best comfort, guests are welcomed to bring their own camping chairs or cushions; staff can also provide folding chairs upon requests. Guests are also strongly advised to bring blankets to bundle up against the windy weather in the Marina district.
