The German city of Nuremberg has cancelled its world-renowned Christmas market over soaring coronavirus cases, officials said yesterday.

The worsening pandemic has already forced a slew of other German cities, including Berlin, Duesseldorf and Cologne, to announce they are scrapping or severely curtailing their Christmas markets.

They draw about 160 million domestic and international visitors annually who bring in revenues of three to five billion euros , according to the BSM stallkeepers’ industry association. With regional disagreements hampering efforts to fight the virus, Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet the heads of Germany’s 16 states on Wednesday in a bid to agree new national measures.
