With a little more than two months to go, already 132 entries from 14 nations are signed up for the 8-day event. However, currently a little more than half this number have paid their entry fees, and organizers are urging the others to complete their registration now because after May 31st entry fees will increase by €250.
COVID protocols: The COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing and many travel restrictions and testing or self-isolation requirements have been in place for some time.
The situation in Estonia is improving daily and since May 24th many COVID-19-related regulations have been relaxed and from June 14th will be relaxed much more. The organizers have applied for special approval from the Estonian government to hold an event as currently planned, even if the limit of outdoor event participants is still less than 1,000 in August.
If some restrictions are still in place by the time the event starts in August, the non-racing features may need to be modified, but the racing portions will be held as planned. If for any reason some teams will be unable to take part in the championship, entry fees will be fully refundable if the entry is cancelled before July 1st. The same date is a deadline for the organizers to call off the championship in case the COVID-19 situation escalates and will not allow the event to proceed.
