Also this year, there were special guidelines for student celebrations in Västerås.

All to reduce the risk of infection spreading during the current pandemic.

As an example, only the closest ones, such as the family, were allowed to be invited to join the spring.

During the morning, student posters, balloons and well-dressed relatives abounded in the city center.

The traditional student procession with truck bed was also canceled, instead many of the students cruised around and honked in their own cars.

On a few occasions, the police had to remind them to stay inside the cars - and not hang out the windows.
