Beginning at 5 PM, indoor theaters and outdoor venues may be open for concerts or movies at half-capacity. Additionally, religious and retail spots will be able to increase capacity from 50 to 75 percent.
Individual Maryland jurisdictions will have the ability to decide when they will enter stage three, as with the previous stages.
