As the Capitals enter the playoffs and the Wizards push to secure a play-in place, they’ll soon have more fan support behind them. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser approved waivers to allow more fans to attend games at Capital One Arena, beginning Friday with the Wizards’ home game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Additionally, the mayor approved opening up Nationals Park for more fans beginning May 14, although the Nationals will embark on a two-series road trip at the end of this week and won’t play at home until May 21.
Capital One Arena will go from 10% capacity to 25% capacity on May 14.
