Back on Track Indiana 

Indiana's Roadmap for Reopening Businesses 

Please note: Masks are required on public transportation and on national park properties, both inside buildings and in outdoor spaces where you cannot socially distance. Individual businesses throughout the South Shore have their mask and social distance requirements posted on-site as well as online. Please check ahead or plan to carry a mask with you just in case.


It can be difficult to keep track of what’s open and what’s not in Indiana during the COVID-19 pandemic, so we’ve put this page together to help you.

The information below will guide you through the Governor of Indiana’s executive orders.

Please note: While we are continuously updating the information on our site to the best of our abilities, we recommend you call ahead before visiting businesses or view their social media posts for the latest information.

These new guidelines began April 6, 2021.


Restaurants and Bars

OPEN: Restaurants, bars and nightclubs may be open at full capacity. Social distancing is encouraged as a seating consideration, with individuals, households or parties spaced six feet apart from another individual, household or party.

Visit our restaurants page to see who is offering dine-in service, outdoor seating and carryout.
