The impending omicron wave required stricter measures for all people – “I don’t want to exempt myself from it”.
“The New Year’s Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic is world-famous and an important part of our country’s cultural identity. Although it is difficult for me, as Federal Chancellor I will not attend it this time,” wrote Nehammer. The Chancellor now wants to watch the concert in front of the television. All other ÖVP government members also refrain from attending the New Year’s concert, the APA said.
The New Year’s Concert will be broadcast on January 1st at 11.15 a.m. on ORF 2 and Ö1.
