Tbilisi City Hall to spend 400,000 GEL on musicians during New Year Events

Tbilisi City Hall will spend 400,000 GEL on musicians for New Year events, said Georgian Economy Minister Natia Turnava earlier today.

Turnava mentioned that before the Covid-19 pandemic, musicians were actively involved in various events throughout Georgia, but as of now they no longer have this opportunity and are left without a source of income. That’s why the City Hall should take care of them during the New Year period.

As of now musicians and singers are deprived of an opportunity to participate in various musical events throughout the country. Due to the existing restrictions restaurants are closed, it is strictly forbidden to hold concerts in hotels too. That’s why the Economy Ministry decided to allocate 400,000 GEL to involve as many musicians and singers as possible in the New Year event organised by the City Hall”, said Turnava.

Tbilisi City Hall is organising various concerts for the New Year Eve, which will be held without spectators because of the pandemic and will be broadcasted on TV.
