Face masks will no longer be necessary to wear indoors from April 20.

The Spanish government will approve the measure on April 19, the Tuesday after the Easter holidays, and Spain's health minister, Carolina Darias, has confirmed Spain-wide mandate will be lifted the following day.

Darias confirmed the dates at a press conference following the Interterritorial Council meeting held on Wednesday.

The obligation to wear face masks will be maintained in certain settings such as nursing homes, hospitals, and on public transport.
