Coronavirus: Rave advertised on Instagram probed
- Published
Organisers were fined after a similar event in Neath Port Talbot in September
A rave at a manor house in north Wales has been advertised on Instagram, prompting an investigation.
Tickets were offered at 拢25 each and organisers said they were doing nothing wrong.
However, North Wales Police said large gatherings are banned under Covid-19 regulations and anyone breaching them could face a 拢10,000 fine.
An illegal rave in Banwen, Neath Port Talbot, attracted 3,000 people and led to organisers being fined.
Supt Jane Banham said: "We are aware of social media posts advertising a music event this coming weekend and our investigations are continuing.
"With continuing restrictions due to the Covid pandemic, public safety is a major concern."
In August, the force launched an operation aimed at deterring rave events.
