It's an exciting day for Phoenix Suns fans as they will soon be allowed back in the arena to watch home games after a long-await hiatus due to the global pandemic.

The team announced that it'll be allowing 1,500 fans back into the stands beginning on Monday, February 8th as the team hosts the Cleveland Cavaliers, reported AZ Family.

The team took to Twitter to share the exciting news. The tweet read, "Ah, the news we've all been waiting for: Join us at @PHXArena beginning Feb. 8 We have been hard at work collaborating with local health officials and preparing out venue to host a limited number of fans in the safest possible way."

PayPal SixthMan Season Ticket members will have access to the ticket presale starting on Thursday, February 4th for games that will last through the first half of the season.

The Suns will also have a special "thank you" for health care workers by offering them free tickets for them and their families. To access these tickets and for more information about the program, go to Suns.com/HeroTickets.

All fans will be required to wear a mask at all times, except during eating or drinking. There will also be social distancing markers all around the building as well as "grab & go" concessions.
