The service is open from 8am to 8pm each day.
People who have been at the venues but have no symptoms are not being asked to contact 111 at this time.
Dr Henrietta Ewart, director of public health, said: ‘With a number of busy venues identified, including the Gaiety Theatre, I appreciate there will be concern in the community.
‘The risk is low and it only applies to those who were at these locations at very specific times. We release details of low risk venues – and the relevant dates and times – so that those who were present know to be extra vigilant and aware to keep a look out for any Covid signs and symptoms they may develop.’
