    Limassol — Limassol Cancels Christmas Events Amid Weather Woes

    limassol — Limassol Municipality has announced the cancellation of all Christmas events scheduled for today, December 7, due to adverse weather conditions. The decision comes as a precautionary measure, prioritising the safety of the public and participants.

    Festivities were set to take place on Anexartisias Street and Ayiou Andreou Street, where local businesses and residents had prepared for a day filled with seasonal cheer. However, the current weather, characterised by heavy rain and strong winds, has made it impossible to proceed with the planned celebrations.

    In a statement released by the Municipality, officials expressed their regret over the situation, acknowledging the disappointment felt by the community. “We sincerely apologise to the public for this cancellation, but the safety of everyone involved is our top priority,” the statement read. The Municipality also assured residents that they would provide updates regarding any potential rescheduling of events or changes to the Christmas programme.

    As the festive season is a significant time for local commerce and community spirit, the cancellation is likely to impact both retailers and attendees. Many local businesses rely heavily on the foot traffic brought in by such events, and the loss of today’s activities may affect their holiday sales.

    Despite the setback, the Municipality remains hopeful that the weather will improve, allowing for the resumption of planned festivities in the coming weeks. Local officials are closely monitoring the situation and are committed to keeping the community informed as conditions change.
