Performing Street Concerts is Prohibited in Grodno

The city of Grodno in Belarus has imposed a ban on live music in courtyards and on the streets, according to reports from the Telegram channel "Charter97%". The reasons behind this decision remain unclear, but it appears that complaints from elderly residents may have played a role.

Local resident Tatiana suggested that excessive volume levels at a bar could have prompted the complaints. However, no specific details about the complainants or the reasons for the ban have been made publicly available.

In an effort to keep the public informed, Charter97.org, a Belarusian human rights and news organisation, has invited users to follow their accounts on various social media platforms. These include Facebook, YouTube, X.com, VKontakte, OK.ru, Instagram, RSS, and Telegram.

Additionally, Charter97.org has a Patreon account for those who wish to support the site financially. Users are encouraged to consider this option as a way to help maintain the organisation's important work.

It's worth noting that the cover band One Day has stated that the ban is due to the complaints, but no further details have been provided. Tatiana, the local resident, expressed surprise that all street performers were restricted instead of just the specific establishment causing the complaints.

As more information becomes available, Charter97.org will continue to report on this developing story. In the meantime, users are encouraged to follow the organisation on their social media platforms for updates.
