The capital administration responded regarding the installation of the New Year tree in Kyiv this year and whether mass events are planned.

As noted by Victoria Mukha, a deputy of the Kyiv City Council from the "UDAR of Vitali Klitschko" political party and chair of the permanent commission on culture, tourism, and public communications, as reported by "Kyiv24", budget funds will not be allocated for the tree's installation.

However, the question of whether it will be placed on Sofiivska Square this year will be definitively decided only at the end of November.

"I will immediately respond regarding mass events during the Christmas and New Year holidays. They are prohibited during the period of martial law, meaning there will be none in Kyiv, just like in 2023," Mukha emphasized.

Regarding the tree, she added that this decision will take into account the current security situation, as gathering large groups of people may pose additional risks. It is still unknown whether the tree will be traditionally decorated and whether it will be accompanied by festive illuminations.

Let us remind you that in 2023, the main tree of the country was installed on Sofiivska Square in Kyiv. It was significantly smaller than in pre-war times, standing at a height of 12 meters, and was not as bright. At the top of the New Year tree was the Trident. It was funded by patrons at that time.
