Los Angeles, March 10 : Bob Chapek, the CEO of American entertainment giant Disney, said that he expects the company’s theme parks in the US state of California to reopen by late April.
During the 2021 annual meeting of shareholders on Tuesday, Chapek noted Disney was “encouraged by the positive trends we’re seeing” in California, reports Xinhua news agency.
“We are hopeful they’ll continue to improve and we’ll be able to reopen our parks by late April… We look forward to publicising an opening date in the coming weeks,” he said in a statement.
Theme parks, including Disneyland, one of the most visited tourist attractions in Southern California, have been closed since March 2020 amid coronavirus fears.
California authorities announced last week that theme parks and stadiums in the state will be allowed to reopen as early as April 1 with capacity restrictions and other safety modifications.
According to the updates of the state’s Blueprint to a Safer Economy unveiled by the California Department of Public Health, theme parks in the counties in the purple tier, the most restrictive tier, are not allowed to reopen.
