On June 18, 2021 the Government of Alberta announced that the 70% vaccination requirement to fully reopen the province had been met. This means that Stage 3 of the Open For Summer plan can begin on July 1, 2021, removing all mandatory COVID-19 restrictions.

Restrictions eased in Stage 3 of the Open for Summer Plan, effective July 1:

• All remaining restrictions will be lifted, including the ban on indoor social gatherings.
• Isolation requirements for confirmed cases of COVID-19 and protective measures in continuing care settings may remain.
• The general indoor provincial mask mandate will be lifted, but masking may still be required in limited and specific settings.
