Fire ban in the entire Stockholm County

6/11/2020, 6:46:58 PM

The ban means that you must not grill solid fuels such as wood, coal and branches. It is still allowed to grill at home and at fixed barbecue places in public places.


The reason for the ban is the recent heat and drought.

- The assessment is made based on weather conditions, and now it has been dry for a long time, says fire inspector Robert Petersen. 

Allowed with home barbecue

But if the barbecue gets too big, it is not completely run. Grilling at home is still allowed, but with some restrictions.

- If you are going to grill, whether it is a fire ban or not, make sure you are on hardened surfaces, says fire inspector Robert Petersen.

The decision applies so far throughout Stockholm County.
