If you’re planning to visit CES 2022 next January, make sure you’re fully vaccinated. The Consumer Technology Association has confirmed that in-person attendees will need to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination.
CES 2022 will take place in Las Vegas on January 5-8, 2022. For those (probably international) who may be unable to travel to Las Vegas, CTA will again create a digital event that will run in parallel with the in-person program.
There’s no indication yet what vaccines will be deemed acceptable. CES 2022 will follow state and local guidelines and recommendations by the CDC for masking and other protocols. Masks are currently required in all public indoor spaces in Las Vegas.
"Based on today’s science, we understand vaccines offer us the best hope for stopping the spread of COVID-19,” said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CTA. “We all play a part in ending the pandemic through encouraging vaccinations and implementing the right safety protocols. We are taking on our responsibility by requiring proof of vaccination to attend CES 2022 in Las Vegas.”
CTA is also assessing the acceptance of proof of a positive antibody test as an alternative requirement and says it will follow state and local guidelines and recommendations by the CDC.
