AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — VAST Concerts & Events LLC announced today that they are moving forward with Go Wheels Up! Texas scheduled for May 29-30, 2021 at the San Marcos Regional Airport. The event, an air show, car show and concert hosted by Texas musician Cory Morrow was first held in 2019 but was cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19.

«We’re all relieved and excited to get to do an event this year,» says Morrow. «We believe in giving San Marcos and Central Texas something to look forward to during these turbulent times. We just want to bring everyone together and celebrate what’s great about America and Texas. It’s going to be an incredible weekend and we hope everybody in the community comes out to see what we have, what San Marcos has.»

The air show will feature the United States Air Force F-16 Viper Demonstration Team, along with several performances by some of the top aerobatic pilots and skydivers in the nation. The car show will showcase hundreds of classic, exotic and unique automobiles from across the state and Cory Morrow himself will headline the entertainment lineup which will also feature other well-known local and regional performers.

«Of course, our central concern is the safety of our spectators, performers and staff,» says Go Wheels Up! Texas’ director of operations Clayton Corn when asked about the ongoing pandemic. «We will be monitoring all available information regarding public health and we will act in accordance with directives from city, county and state officials.»

Mayor of San Marcos, Jane Hughson, said, «I attended Go Wheels Up in 2019 and I thought it was fabulous! The air show, car show, and music certainly provided a full weekend of fun. I am encouraged to hear that planning of the event is moving forward with preventive measures included in case we’re still dealing with effects of COVID-19 and gatherings at the end of May.»

Clayton Corn continued, «We are moving forward under the assumption that the pressure on the healthcare system will ease by the end of May to a point that we all feel it’s appropriate to hold a large outdoor event. Should we need to incorporate social distancing and other precautions, we are certainly including that in our planning.»

A portion of the proceeds will go to benefit area charities including the San Marcos Education Foundation, the Greater San Marcos Youth Council and the Commemorative Air Force Central Texas Wing.

Tickets for the event will go on sale February 8. Sponsorship, vendor and volunteer opportunities are also available. For more information, visit Go Wheels Up! Texas or email Info@gowheelsup.live

LONDON, 27 January 2021 /PRNewswire Policy/ —

Further action to minimise travel across international borders.

The government has announced further action for outbound and inbound passengers to minimise travel across international borders and reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission.

While the focus is on protecting the UK’s world-leading vaccination programme, this action will reduce the risk of a new variant of the virus being transmitted from someone coming into the UK.

The measures announced today include:

For those wishing to travel out of the UK

– Declaring reason for travel: anyone who does not have a valid reason for travel will be directed to return home and may face a fine. The reason for travel will be checked.

– Increased police enforcement: there will be an increased police presence at ports and airports, fining those in breach of the stay at home regulations. Anyone – without valid reason for travel will be directed to return home and may face a fine.

– Reviewing travel exemptions: the list of travel exemptions will be urgently reviewed so that only the most important and exceptional reasons are included.

For those seeking to enter the UK

– Managed isolation in hotels: this will be for those arriving from countries where we have imposed international travel bans and who cannot be refused entry. They will be required to isolate for ten days without exception and more details will be provided in due course.

– Police checks: police are carrying out more physical checks at addresses to make sure people are self-isolating.

Home Secretary Priti Patel said:

«There are still too many people coming in and out of our country each day. The rules are clear – people should be staying at home unless they have a valid reason to leave. Going on holiday is not a valid reason.

«As we have done throughout this global health emergency, we will continue to take all steps necessary to protect the public and help prevent the spread of the virus.»

These new measures are on top of the restrictions already in place, all of which help reduce the risk of importing a new variant.

– Refusing entry: we will continue to refuse entry to non-UK residents from red list countries which are already subject to a UK travel ban.

– Entering the UK: passengers arriving in the UK need to provide evidence of a negative pre-departure Covid test. There is also the requirement for people arriving from abroad to self-isolate on arrival, and the requirement to complete a passenger locator form, with fines for those who fail to comply.

– Detecting new variants: we will help other countries to access to the UK’s world-leading gene sequencing capabilities to help with early identification of any new and dangerous variants of the virus.

All measures will be kept under review and further action will be taken to protect the public if needed.
