‘Grotesque’ barriers block off Primrose Hill for New Year’s Eve
Popular spot for watching fireworks cordoned off after disbanding of dedicated Royal Parks police
Primrose Hill has been blocked off by “grotesque” barriers to stop revellers entering to watch the New Year’s Eve fireworks.
The park in Camden has panoramic views of the capital and an estimated 30,000 people celebrated New Year’s Eve there in 2024.
However, this year it is shut, with the gates locked from 8pm on Tuesday until 6am on New Year’s Day, after dedicated parks police were scrapped as part of a cost-cutting measure.
Some of the park has been cordoned off with solid hoarding and temporary fencing, while other parts have temporary fencing to prevent spectators from entering.
