All 1000 seats in Carrington Park's grandstand will be available for the Penrith Panthers' clash against the Manly Sea Eagles on Saturday, May 1, however the ground is not an entirely-seated venue so other guidelines must still be followed.
However, the revised capacity for next month's game hasn't yet been determined, however previous estimates for the ground in typical circumstances have been between 11,000 and 12,000.
The record attendance at the ground was 10,973, from 2019 when Melbourne hammered Penrith 32-2.
The Panthers have taken one of their home games to Bathurst every year since 2014, except for 2020 when the fixture was scrapped and relocated back to Penrith because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Tickets have been on sale for the NRL match since March 19, with council currently offering three tiers of pricing to encourage early ticket sales.
Tickets are available via Ticketek and through BathurstNRL.com.au.
