Gathering clarification
Gatherings are still not permitted, which means no parties, but it is possible to see friends in small groups, such as two families getting together. Regarding the “10 person” rule, upon clarification from the Carabinieri, there is no guarantee that Italian law enforcement would not give tickets to a group of 10 individuals who did not otherwise live together, as that could be seen as an impermissible party. Please contact your chain of command with questions.
