Bolzano City Council Passes Full Smoking Ban at Lido
Bolzano City Council passes comprehensive smoking ban at Lido to reduce exposure and promote health, with designated smoking areas.

According to Unsertirol24 on June 26th, the city council of Bolzano, Italy has approved a proposal put forth by Team K to implement a comprehensive smoking ban at the Lido in Bolzano (public pool area). This ban aims to reduce exposure to secondhand smoke and promote a healthier lifestyle, with smoking only permitted in specifically designated areas.


The Lido in Bolzano (public pool area) was not considered a sports facility, so a comprehensive smoking ban was not previously enforced, which could easily lead to harmful secondhand smoke, especially in high tourist volumes.


Team K city councilor Matthias Cologna stated,


Protecting the public from the dangers of secondhand smoke is extremely important, especially in environments where there are many children and minors.


This decision fills a gap in public restroom regulations while also prohibiting the use of smoking, e-cigarettes, and heated tobacco products.


The bill received support from a majority of lawmakers across party lines, with only two votes in opposition.


The Bolzano city government will collaborate with Lido to jointly implement a smoking ban and establish designated smoking areas.
