We've got some advice from experts on how to gather safely this year. And looking ahead, here's a list of events planned over the holiday season and the latest on what the 2022 Carnival season could look like.

But the situation remains very much up in the air, and Halle Parker parses some of the statements from city officials about how and when that could happen.
