On Saturday, June 5, the nightclub is officially returning to Billy Joe's in Newburgh. Fully vaccinated customers will be able to stand and dance at the Billy Joe's nightclub, officials told Hudson Valley Post.

Officials from Billy Joes tell Hudson Valley Post there will be staff members checking vaccination statuses for each customer who wants to enter the vaccinated section. The vaccinated section will be roped off so vaccinated customers can stand, dance and mingle with others who are vaccinated.

New Yorkers can prove they are fully vaccinated by bringing their vaccine cards or downloading the New York State Excelsior Pass app.

"Excelsior Pass supports a safe reopening of New York by providing a free, fast and secure way to present digital proof of COVID-19 vaccination or negative test results. Think of it as a mobile airline boarding pass, but for proving you received a COVID-19 vaccination or negative test," the New York State Excelsior Pass website states.

Unvaccinated customers are still welcome at Billy Joe's but they must remain seated, officials say.

Other businesses in the Hudson Valley are also bringing back events that were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Trivia night recently returned at the Newburgh Brewing Company. City Winery in Montgomery announced an "amazing" concert series lineup while Tuesday night Jazz Jam sessions are returning to Mahoney's Irish Pub & Steakhouse in Poughkeepsie.
