BuikRock had previously announced a sabbatical year for 2025, but the financial hole appears to be too big. “Due to problems with electronic payments at Bancontact during BuikRock in 2022, money did not end up in the organization’s account. Moreover, the visitor numbers were also disappointing,” says the curator.
The non-profit organization has now been declared bankrupt and proceedings are still ongoing regarding the technical problems with electronic payments.
