The Düsseldorf Carneval Committee announced on Wednesday evening that the Rose Monday procession would be postponed to May 8th next year due to the pandemic.

The new date opens up the opportunity to carry out the Düsseldorf Rose Monday procession in the usual way with thousands of spectators at the roadside, it was said to justify.

"It is more than sad that in Düsseldorf purely economic reasons ensure that all the rules of customs are thrown overboard," said Festival Committee President Christoph Kuckelkorn according to the announcement.

In Cologne it was decided some time ago that the Rose Monday procession would take place under 2G conditions - only for vaccinated and convalescent people.

However, the plans are constantly being adapted to current developments.
