Logan, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Moreton Bay, Townsville and Palm Island will return to stage two COVID-19 restrictions for at least two weeks from 4pm today.
It means the number of people allowed to gather in homes and public places will be reduced to 30.
Weddings and funerals will be capped at 100 attendees.
Only 20 will be allowed to dance at weddings.
Restaurants and cafes will return to one person per 4sqm.
It comes after Queensland recorded six new Covid-19 cases as the outbreak continues to worsen , spreading into the state’s north.
Four of the cases are linked to the aviation cluster including one pilot who flew to Townsville with reports that a man was transported from the Hotel Chancellor to Townsville Hospital on Wednesday night.
He subsequently tested positive for COVID-19.
It’s believed that the man may have been in the community for the past two days.
The crowd at Sunday’s NRL grand final at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane has also been cut by 25 per cent.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk says the next two days will be “absolutely critical”.
