It was feared, it is now recorded.

Before imagining yourself drinking mulled wine in the streets of Strasbourg during the Christmas market, you must first make sure you have a health pass to go and taste it… in an area reserved for this purpose.

The city announced in a press release on Tuesday "that due to the current health context, special measures" will be put in place during the Strasbourg Capital Christmas period.

"In line with the overall system of the 2021 edition and in close connection with the Regional Health Agency and the Bas-Rhin prefecture, a rigorous health system is in place," says the city.

Access conditional on health pass

“The consumption of food and drinks will be exclusively possible in dedicated catering areas, access to which will be conditional on presentation of the health pass.

»Hand disinfection with hydroalcoholic gel will also be compulsory before touching objects on the stands.

Finally, the authorities are asking to be more careful than ever to respect barrier gestures.

Remember that a prefectural decree of November 15 imposes "the wearing of a mask outdoors in high density assembly areas", that is to say in the whole of the Big Island from November 26, the day of the inauguration.

This, from the opening of the markets, that is to say from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. from Sunday to Thursday, from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Fridays, and until 10 p.m. on Saturdays.

The city warns: “The public and private security forces will ensure that these measures are respected.

Finally, the Regional Health Agency will deploy mediators to support visitors.

Dedicated multilingual signage will also be put in place at the various points of affluence (entrances to the island ellipse, Christmas markets, main squares).

Three days before the start of the festivities, Santa's hood already seems full ...
