Bermuda’s gombey troupes have worked with Government to agree on a plan to provide their traditional performances in a non-traditional way on New Year’s Day, in order to keep the public safe from the spread of Covid-19.
The troupes have agreed to forego their usual large performances in public places or marching along public roads where crowds will gather and follow. Instead, they will offer short, physically-distanced pop-up performances in various small neighbourhoods throughout New Year’s Day.
