It's no secret that restrictions were imposed on New Year's holidays in Moscow due to the coronavirus. New Year 2021 will be accompanied by new bans due to the spread of a dangerous disease. Not everyone knows how public places will work.

Latest news

The restrictions came into effect back in November 2020. At the moment, the following restrictions have been set in Moscow due to the coronavirus:

1. All cultural, entertainment and entertainment events have been canceled.
2. Closed children's camps, entertainment centers and rooms in shopping centers.
3. Catering places are open until 23:00. Places can only open at 6:00 am.
4. Most of the employees have been transferred to telecommuting.
5. No more than ¼ of spectators can go to cinema and theaters.
6. Sports competitions are held only after the approval of Rospotrebnadzor.

Experts report that such restrictions will be in effect until January 15, 2021. Some establishments will be closed as early as December 31 at 20:00. They will not open until January 2, 2021.

According to Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, there was a need to set restrictions on the work of the entertainment and recreation industry. He argues that this will save institutions and businesses from unnecessary expenses associated with the sudden cancellation of celebrations and concerts.

Many were worried about the closure of the ice rink. But don't worry. The skating rink will work, but with restrictions. There will be a small number of tickets on sale so that as few people as possible are near each other.

The operating mode of the rollers has been changed in connection with the requirements of Rospotrebnadzor to comply with restrictive measures. Tickets can only be purchased online. And during the rental, you must wear gloves and masks.

Things are a little different with corporate parties. They are allowed to be carried out, but only in compliance with sanitary and epidemiological restrictions. If violations are detected, the institution in which the event was organized will receive a fine. In this case, the sanctions will also apply to the participants in the corporate party.

Will there be mass celebrations

Such events have been canceled. But to create a festive mood, the city will be decorated with New Year's toys and illumination. For example, a large Christmas ball has already been installed on Poklonnaya Gora, weighing 35 tons. Light structures are located on Manezhnaya Square. Christmas trees have also been canceled.

Despite this, people are allowed to go outside the house. However, you will not be able to visit any places normally. The only places that citizens can visit are shopping centers. They are not planned to be closed during the holidays.

Outcomes

The restrictions imposed in the capital due to the coronavirus will affect many entertainment venues, events and concerts. It is not yet known how long the bans will last. Information about the removal of restrictions will appear only after the January holidays.
