Due to the current epidemiological situation in Serbia, there will be no organized New Year’s Eve. Public gatherings are forbidden, there will be no celebrations in cafes, restaurants and clubs, as we are used to, while the Crisis Staff appealed to the citizens to stay at home and spend the holidays with their families.
Some measures are abolished, others are brought … citizens no longer know for sure when and what works. Here is what the working hours of catering and trade facilities are like in the coming days.
Restaurants and cafes will be on December 31st. and on January 1, work until 6 pm, shops can work until 8 pm, and food stores until 9 pm. However, most of them will also put the key in the lock at 6 pm on the last day of this year, and they will not even work on the first day of the new year.
