Gloucester County Mega-Site Offering Walk-In Vaccine Appointments

GLOUCESTER COUNTY, NJ — New Jersey’s COVID-19 vaccination mega-site in Gloucester County is now offering walk-in appointments, county officials announced on Thursday.

“It is very important to us that everyone has the opportunity to get vaccinated. We understand that registering and waiting for an appointment can be very time-consuming,” Gloucester County Commissioner Director Robert M. Damminger said. “With eligibility opening to 16 years of age and older, we’re ready to serve Gloucester County residents and beyond at the site.”

Eligibility expanded on Monday. Although the site began accepting walk-ins on Thursday, officials recommend registering at covidvaccine.nj.gov before visiting the site at 1400 Tanyard Road in Sewell.

The site is open seven days a week, 8 a.m. to noon. It is the second mega-site to open for walk-in vaccinations in South Jersey this week.

The Atlantic City Convention Center's COVID-19 vaccination mega-site began offering walk-in appointments on Wednesday.
