Gäuboden folk festival in Straubing: "some risks that cannot be fully assessed, but..."
“The state regulations now allow folk festivals again.
There remain some risks that cannot be fully weighed up, but I am pleased about this clear vote by the committee, especially in the interests of the showmen and landlords," said Mayor Markus Pannermayr (CSU).
The region had to wait a long time to be able to celebrate this festival "as part of our identity" again.
The decision about the festival was actually intended for the end of the month, but was then brought forward to give those involved more planning security.
The Ostbayernschau is to take place again parallel to the folk festival.
