Effects on events, museums, public life
Events with more than 50 visitors (500 until 29 march) are currently officially prohibited in Sweden, but the spread of the Corona infection has affected even smaller events, places of interest and our public life. Several events like concerts, performances and exhibitions in Värmland, are cancelled or may be cancelled, sometimes with short notice. The museums, hotels and other accommodations as well as restaurants and shops are open at this time being and welcome their guests. They all follow the current regulations from authorities concerning hygiene and the guest is asked to do the same. Please observe, that opening hours might be changed, even with short notice.
