English Heritage confirm Stonehenge Summer Solstice plans underway
It all depends on the easing of restrictions
English Heritage say they are "well underway" with planning for the Summer Solstice at Stonehenge.
It's planned for the 20th of June, a day before the restrictions are supposed to be eased.
This means people will be able to attend in groups of up to 30, as per the current rules.
But if the guidance changes, the plans will change also.
The last two solstice events were unable to be held at the historical site due to lockdown.
They're currently working with the Police, Wiltshire Council and others to get it arranged.
Posting an update on their website, English Heritage said:
"This year, there will be plenty of additional safety measures in place and we do ask that anyone who is thinking of coming, check here for details of these along with precautionary health measures and the usual conditions of entry. Anyone arriving on 20 June can expect to see socially distanced queuing, hand sanitiser stations, and reminders to keep your distance and to stay within groups of fewer than 30. Catering outlets will all operate under Covid-secure arrangements.
We are asking everyone who attends to be considerate of their own safety and that of those around them, to respect the stones and remember that this is a spiritual occasion for many."
People who are unable attend will still be able to experience it though, as the charity will be running a live stream of the sunset, just like they have done over the past year.
This means those who can't leave their house or are worried about attending the event can still be involved.
Details about the stream will be posted on the English Heritage website.
