According to a spokesperson for the campaign, the aim is to bring clubs back to the attention. “We notice that that is not happening at all and that just hurts after being closed for two years.”
“With the action we want to show ourselves how we can open safely again,” said the spokesman. According to him, it is certain that the target group of nightclubs now visits each other at other locations and parties. “We can do that much more safely with security guards, bar staff and good extraction systems.” The intention is that during the night of the promotion, the corona admission ticket (CTB) will be checked.
Consultation
The sector will continue to consult with the Ministry of Economic Affairs on Monday. According to the ministry, this is about “collecting input to take with you to the weighing moment for the cabinet.” According to a spokesperson, no decision will be made about the use of 1G in nightlife, with all visitors being tested. ‘Corona minister’ Ernst Kuipers said last week that he wanted to investigate in the House of Representatives whether the night catering industry could open with the so-called 1G policy.
According to the current rules, the catering industry must close at 10 p.m. and a seat is mandatory.
