Ask people not to gather
Broadcasting begins as usual at 18:00 on New Year’s Eve, and the program includes speeches by the mayor and vocals from the Bodo Cathedral Youth Choir. Therefore this part of the program will not be conducted in Rensåsen.
Bodo’s official New Year celebration ends as usual with a spectacular fireworks display, but without the audience at Rensåsparken.
– Because of the infection control, the municipality must, this year as last year, ask people not to come to Rensåsen, but to watch the fireworks either from the stairs or from the window of the house.
– You can also follow the fireworks live via the online live broadcast. This is to avoid large crowds in terms of infection control.
