South Australia The density requirement of 1 person per 4 square metres still applies for Defined public activities but any given room or enclosed area cannot have more than 75 people present. Where a place has multiple rooms or enclosed areas, the maximum number of people at that place cannot exceed 300 people. These requirements apply only to patrons, not staff.
So, a single-room restaurant can only have 75 customers, plus staff. A facility with multiple rooms and outdoor areas can have up to 300 patrons, provided none of those rooms exceeds the 1 person per 4 square metres rule, to a maximum of 75 people per room. Also, if two Defined public activities take place at adjacent places, (dining in clubrooms and playing sport on an adjacent oval) up to 300 people could be dining, and another 300 could be playing or watching sport on the oval.
Tasmania Gatherings are restricted to 80 people (excluding staff) and the four square metre rule per person applies.
