Scotland moved beyond level zero Covid restrictions earlier this week and venues are asking people to do more to help safeguard punters.
The latest lifting of restrictions means that nightclubs can reopen, while large gatherings are back on the agenda once again.
More than 50,000 people piled into Ibrox Stadium on Tuesday night to watch Rangers’ Champions League clash against Malmö - making it the largest attended event since March 2020.
And that looks set to be broken tonight, as Celtic fans head to Parkhead for their sold out Europa League tie against Jablonec.
While many have welcomed this return to normality, health and government officials have urged Scots to be cautious as Covid still continues to pose a threat.
When announcing the lifting of restrictions last week, Nicola Sturgeon said: “The last year has reminded all of us just how precious some of the simplest things in life really are, and many of us I suspect will resolve not to take them quite so much for granted in future.
“Undoubtedly, the best way of doing that in the short term is to continue to be careful, cautious and sensible, even as legal restrictions are lifted. The government will continue to provide guidance to help get that balance right.
“We all hope – I know I certainly do – that the restrictions we lift next Monday will never again have to be re-imposed. But no-one can guarantee that.
“This virus remains a threat - and as we enter winter, it may well pose challenges for us again."
Scots are already being asked to request a physical copy of their vaccination status before jetting off abroad as a number of countries require people to show them before entry.
So-called vaccine passports to enter pubs, nightclubs and restaurants are yet to become law in Scotland - but a number of venues are already asking for proof of both jags.
Anyone can access their vaccination status online through here.
This will tell you when you received both jags and which vaccine you have received.
Physical copies of the vaccination certification can be accessed by clicking on the ‘request paper copy’ option.
NHS Scotland said that physical copies should only be request if Scots are travelling in the next 14 days.
The Scottish Government said that it will launch a vaccine passport app next month.
An initial rollout of the app will be used for international travel, but officials have hinted that it could be used for access to “higher risk venues” in the future.
