Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand that you want the Government to allow the hospitality industry to resume functioning, but it's not clear what rules you want the Government to change.

The Government has already allowed public gatherings to take place, with some restrictions. If you want the Government to remove all restrictions on public gatherings, to enable the types of events you outline in your petition to take place, you could start a new petition requesting this.
