Embarrassment around canceled festival: Amsterdam asked 4 times (!) if the tent was OK, but received no response

The municipality of Amsterdam asked the Environment Agency four times whether it agreed with the new tent that dance festival Music On wanted to use, but received no response. Ultimately, four days before the party, it was announced that the tent had not been approved, after which the festival was canceled. “I was really ashamed,” said mayor Femke Halsema.
