All theatergoers over the age of two must wear masks and either provide proof of full vaccination or a recent negative test.
Tickets to Shakespeare in the Park are still free and limited to two per person, but there will be no in-person lines this year.
Tickets will be distributed through "an advanced digital lottery" on Goldstar. Entries will be accepted starting on June 29.
The public theater could modify capacity limits if state protocols are revised.
