INTRODUCING B TOGETHER
B Together is Boston’s vaccine requirement for certain indoor spaces. Let’s stay healthy and connected — together.
Starting on January 15, 2022, to address rising COVID-19 cases and encourage vaccination, individuals will be required to show proof of vaccination against COVID-19 in order to enter certain indoor spaces in Boston. People working in those locations will also be required to have received their vaccines.
The best way for Boston to stay healthy and support our communities, our businesses, and cultural institutions is for more people to get vaccinated. The B Together policy helps us do that.
Aside from the information on this website, we also have downloadable information for individuals and businesses.
COVERED LOCATIONSStarting on January 15, 2022, people will be required to show proof of vaccination against COVID-19 to enter certain indoor spaces in Boston that offer:
- Indoor dining, including bars and nightclubs
- Indoor fitness
- Indoor entertainment
You can view a full detailed list of covered locations.
Employees working in those spaces will also be required to be vaccinated. Covered businesses are responsible for checking proof of vaccination and posting a notice about the COVID-19 vaccine requirement — and the City is here to help. We have a printable image of the notice that covered businesses must post at their entrance.
PROOF OF VACCINATIONTo enter one of the establishments listed above, you will need to show that you are vaccinated against COVID-19. That verification can be done with:
- a CDC vaccination card
- a digital image of your CDC card
- an image of any official immunization record, or
- a City of Boston app or any other COVID vaccine verification app.
