>There will be no fan zone in Lausanne this summer for the World Cup, according to 20 minutes. As in Geneva, soccer fans will be unable to enjoy these festive venues due to the G7 summit in Evian. However, fan zones are expected to be set up in other cities in the canton of Vaud.
>Lausanne is foregoing a fan zone for organizational and security reasons. There will be no facilities in Ouchy, as is traditionally the case, nor anywhere else in the city.
>This decision could benefit restaurant owners, notes a Lausanne city official. They are expected to see crowds flocking to their outdoor seating areas between June 11 and July 19, the dates of the World Cup.
>In an interview with Forum, Pierre-Antoine Hildbrand, the PLR city councilor in charge of police and economic affairs in Lausanne, notes that “we must respect the work of law enforcement and maintain an operational reserve. “We cannot, on the one hand, ask for assistance from the federal government and other cantonal police forces, and on the other hand, allow events that will potentially require a significant amount of work from police officers. There are more than 600 establishments in Lausanne, many of which will set up screens to show the matches.”
>“We must be responsible regarding the demands we place on the police; we don’t know what might happen with this G7,” concludes Pierre-Antoine Hildbrand.
