Has there been any indication that the government will amend the bar closing hours during Semana Santa, as was done between Christmas and New Years'?

This quote is by Planner on the HV thread:

Easter is very specific here. From Thursday evening until Saturday at noon - all loud music is off. This means the bars close. NO club, no discos etc. This is the only time of the year it happens. The bars on resort are of course open

The part that I am confused about is back when I lived in POP, the discos at the resort were closed at some point over the weekend as well. I believe it was at 11:59pm Thursday, all day and night on Good Friday, and reopened on the Saturday night. Does this not happen anymore?

Just curious,

Marlie

You are right Marlie, the discos do close but the actual bars on the resort stay open.
