The summer heatwave has taken hold, and with it the increased need for drinking water. At the beginning of June, AS Tallinna Vesi opened public water taps, where you can get clean drinking water free of charge until the end of September.

Tallinn invites everyone to welcome the New Year at Freedom Square, where the celebration will feature a concert with performances by ensemble LAINE, folk-infused beats of Trad.Attack!, rapper nublu and an innovative light show titled “New Beginning.” Due to the concert, there will be traffic closures in the area and rerouted public transport lines to accommodate the festivities.

With the ongoing heatwave, it is important to remember that higher temperatures require bigger water consumption. There are dozens of public water taps in Tallinn where anyone can get clean drinking water for free.
