Earlier this week, MLW announced it will host a live event with fans this July at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia.

This comes after more than a year of MLW utilizing archived footage and empty arena matches they have taped at The Gilt Nightclub in Florida.

On Friday, the following was sent out by the promotion indicating the safety protocols that will be utilized at the 2300 Arena when they run the Fusion television taping on Saturday, July 10th:

The health and wellbeing of fans, the athletes, staff, and crew are of the utmost importance to MLW and the 2300 Arena. 

The 2300 Arena is following city and state guidelines for the latest capacity requirements and safety standards. 
 
The 2300 Arena recently replaced all its filters in their air system to HEPA grade. They also added UV lights inside their HVAC system.
 
Hand sanitizing stations will be available for patrons throughout the arena.
 
All seating will be socially distanced for safety, allowing fans to sit with their party but following CDC recommendations regarding other attendees and spacing.
 
There will be a covid compliance officer on site for the 2300 Arena as well as an additional covid compliance officer from Major League Wrestling to ensure all protocols are maintained. 
 
Attendees, staff, crew, and athletes will be temperature checked upon entrance and must wear a mask while inside the venue. 
 
Pennsylvania’s new guidelines as of 4/4/2021 allow 25% maximum occupancy limits for indoor events. The indoor capacity is expected to rise to 35% after April 30th.
