Event attendees will adhere to the Evo 2023 COVID-19 guidelines below, Evo’s Code of Conduct, and the Michelob ULTRA Arena entry requirements. You should expect to go through a screening process before entering the Mandalay Bay Exhibit Halls or the Michelob ULTRA Arena that includes bag searches and metal detectors.

It is highly recommended for attendees of EVO2023 to wear a mask at all times while at the event but it is not required.

If you feel sick before or during Evo, please do not attend.
