The Ziggo Dome and AFAS Live do not understand that they are also not allowed to receive more than 30 visitors. ‘We meet the conditions like no other.’
–
Yesterday mayor Halsema made a list of ten cultural institutions in the city that will receive 250 guests instead of 30 in the coming period. In short, they must have enough space and be of cultural value.
Directors Danny Damman (Ziggo Dome) and Birgitte de Winter (AFAS Live) were stunned when they read that they were not among the chosen ones. Today they sent an urgent letter to the mayor asking them to put them on the list. The mayor hinted to the city council that there were still a few waivers to be forgiven.
Even if it is the question whether this helps them. The Ziggo Dome has to clear the calendar again for events they organized for 3,000 visitors per evening, AFAS can receive 1,200 people with due observance of the 1.5 meter rule.
But even though director De Winter gradually sees’ the bottom of the well appear ‘, they still want to continue in Zuidoost, also for 250 visitors:’ We want to continue to offer a stage, we can do that, we have always done that and want it we still do. ‘
