The Municipal Executive has decided to install more lighting in the city of Groningen. There is little lighting, especially in the evening and at night.
It is also noted that the current lighting is quite boring. That is why there will be a lot of new colored lighting in the city. Starting with the new fountain on the Grote Markt.
Burn for five minutes
A pass reader will be placed at the fountain and everyone will have the option to turn on the colored lights with his or her QR code. The lights remain on for five minutes and during that time you can choose which colors to turn on.
There will also be colored lighting at the Martini Tower and the public toilets. A conscious decision was made to start the project on the Grote Markt; after all, this is the heart of the city.
Kick-off on Easter Monday
More illuminated places will come from these three locations; Vindicat, the Forum and the Martini Church are also in view. The kick-off of this project is on Easter Monday, which is a day when many tourists are in the city center.
To turn on the lighting, you have to hold the QR code on your smartphone in front of one of the card readers and the result is astonishing. You can also enter some music at the same time.
You can also cut it out
If you do not have a smartphone, you can cut the QR code from the Groninger Gezinsbode and take it with you to the Grote Markt. Of course you can also take the entire newspaper with you.
