She further indicated that the municipality will not guarantee any losses. According to Dijksma, it is the responsibility of the organization itself to decide that it is not possible financially, and that the festival cannot continue. There is a chance that it will become a financial fiasco, because the budget largely depends on the catering turnover and is based on good weather. If it rains that day, most of the turnover will be lost. Then the situation for the festival becomes dire, thinks Dijksma. “And that’s pretty solid.” Both the organization and the municipality want to keep the festival free for visitors.
