NT Police say one Darwin pub closed its doors because it could no longer abide by COVID-19 safety restrictions on Friday night as patrons spread through the city for drinks.

A Darwin pub has been issued a warning by Northern Territory Police for failing to comply with coronavirus regulations on Friday night, while another voluntarily shut its doors after being "overwhelmed" by patrons.

"The one that was really busy actually had a plan in place … [but] they were unable to deal with the public due to the number of people that arrived", Acting Commander Gill said. "This is just a timely reminder for all involved that the onus is on individuals as well as licensed premises that they have to adhere to restrictions," he said.
