Carbide will be shot in Rhenen and Abcoude tomorrow and

But this year it is not as normal in all municipalities. The reason? New Year’s Eve falls on a Sunday. That is why this year in Rhenen, where the Christian community is relatively large, it is prohibited to shoot carbide on New Year’s Day. The municipality does offer an alternative: on Saturday, December 30, carbide shooting is allowed between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. “The annual carbide spectacle” will also take place a day earlier in Abcoude because of the Sunday rest, the Carbid Guild said. The festivities take place there between 12 noon and 5 p.m.
