The first spring sun, even on a Saturday, filled the Antwerp squares, parks, quays and streets en masse. According to the Antwerp police, there were no major incidents and it was mainly “pleasantly busy”, but a lot of people were nevertheless reported.
Too many people on Theaterplein
At the Saturday market on Theaterplein, among other things, the stewards of the city of Antwerp decided around 3.15 pm, 45 minutes before the official end of the market, that too many people were together and that it was therefore better to close the market.

Some market vendors strongly disagree with that decision. “There were groups around the market with too many people drinking drinks, but there was hardly anyone on the market,” says market stallholder Thajana Van Hal. “Really ridiculous that the market was closed. Several customers who had placed orders were not allowed to come to us. We need our income after last year. ”
Some customers were also unable to approve the decision. At the Graanmarkt a heated discussion arose between a visitor who was refused entry, the stewards and the police. Ultimately, the man was arrested administratively, the police confirm.
Parties at the Scheldebocht
Things also got out of hand on the Scheldebocht. Hundreds of young people had come together with drink and music, and amateur images show that there is no question of distance or mouth masks.

“We have indeed received reports of parties there. Anyone who did not obey the rules, so did not keep a distance or did not have a mouth mask with them, was reported, ”said spokesman Wouter Bruyns of the local police of Antwerp.

The police cannot yet say exactly how many PVs were issued on Saturday, but that easily runs into the tens.
