Paisley Nahanee is longing for those exhilarating club nights, the ones where bumping into a few old friends on the dance floor wasn\u2019t considered a health risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when the disc jockey and event organizer throws a couple parties at Vancouver\u2019s pride festivities this weekend, nobody will be making close encounters beneath the disco light, under orders from British Columbia health officials.<\/p>

\u201cThis is going be really different,\u201d Nahanee said of two physically distanced Level Up! events that are restricted to outdoor seating of 50 people at the Clubhouse bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The parties are billed as \u201cnot quite like last year, but with the same spirit,\u201d and without an overflowing dance floor it\u2019ll certainly feel scaled down.<\/p>

Instead of crowds numbering in the hundreds, guests can reserve tickets for up to six of their friends on the patio. Together, they\u2019ll congregate in their circle \u2014 or \u201cpod\u201d \u2014 for a two-hour window before making way for the next round of partiers. It\u2019s regimented, but for Nahanee, at least it\u2019s happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPartygoers just have to change their expectations,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou\u2019re not going to meet any new friends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A province-wide ban on dance floors went into effect last week after a number of COVID-19 cases linked to bars and clubs raised concerns over close contact. The move dealt another blow to the crippled local club industry that\u2019s struggled to reopen in the midst of the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Club operators in B.C. aren\u2019t alone either. Any bar or venue with a dance floor as a draw might be forced to rethink how they operate with no end to COVID-19 in sight. In Toronto, large venues remain closed, while in Montreal nightclubs are back in business without dance floors and with limited capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Morgan Deane, a New York-based expert in the clubbing industry, has called for a widespread reckoning with the future of nightlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEveryone\u2019s still operating in this modality of when COVID is over, everything will go back to normal,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThings are not going back to normal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deane, who\u2019s spent more than 15 years helping launch new venues and run electronic music festivals, wants to see club owners stop seeking temporary fixes and instead look at \u201ccompletely reimagining\u201d their business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her online guide \u201cA Light in the Night\u201d serves as a roadmap for small clubs hoping to reopen during the pandemic. It compiles illustrations of suggested venue layouts alongside best practices made in consultation with industry professionals and health experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The guide\u2019s encourages standard practices, such as enhanced cleaning and wearing masks, as well as mandatory temperature checks for all staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the VIP section, the safety model suggests alcohol be stored in a \u201cbottle cage\u201d that\u2019s only accessible by the service staff to minimize contact. The new practice would add a barrier to the typical VIP experience where clubgoers shell out big bucks to pour from expensive bottles of liquor at will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the dance floor, various distancing measures could separate partiers, including circles on the floor that isolate dancers from each other and a double rope that keeps two metres separation from the seated area to prevent overspill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really reimagining what a dance floor is,\u201d Deane said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNot saying we can\u2019t dance anymore or that there can only be lounges, but what can we do instead?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Isaac Bogoch, an infectious diseases expert at Toronto General Hospital and associate professor of medicine at the University of Toronto, said the guidelines outlined by Deane are well thought out, though he\u2019s still concerned about how they would fare in a real-world setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many people still assume that masks are a fail-proof barrier, and Bogoch worries that could play out in the clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMasks might provide a little bit of benefit but not as much as people think,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey forget that physical distancing is really driving it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said it\u2019s time for a \u201ctremendous PR campaign\u201d that encourages people to understand the roles of masks and physical distancing in indoor spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think there\u2019s any easy answer here,\u201d he said. \u201cA lot of things are very easy to say, but just hard to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reza Afshari, a clinical professor at the University of British Columbia, expects the coming months will be unpredictable for nightlife as more people head indoors in the cooler weather. While that presents new hurdles that could lead to rollbacks in reopenings, he believes a collaborative relationship between the provincial government, scientists and club owners themselves could help endure the challenges ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPutting regulation in place is like a faucet that you\u2019re opening more. If you see there are some side effects, then the speed of the running water should become slower,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere is no rule that\u2019s being written on a stone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
