Lowlands director Eric van Eerdenburg ‘blazing’ at cabinet | entertainment

entertainment">Lowlands would be from 20 to 22 August this year. This gives the Lowlands organization less than a week to set up the festival. “That is far too short and costs a lot of money. They radiate something of: ‘you just see how you solve it’”, says Van Eerdenburg. “They just let the sector dangle. The cabinet has been completely disconnected from reality.”

entertainment">The new measures can cause the costs to rise considerably for the organization, because the construction has already started. “And the English artists are not covered by the guarantee fund,” continues Van Eerdenburg, referring to, among others, Liam Gallagher, Stormzy and The Chemical Brothers. “Those are the most expensive artists we have booked. It’s really rude.”
