Crisis 2021

[Papa]

Post von Willie Bogaerts von den Tin Soldiers of Antwerp auf Facebook über die aktuelle Crisis Planung:

"Yes, Crisis is still planned for November 6th, but we'll have to see how the vaccination and generally, the whole pandemic goes before we decide.
That's the most sensible thing to do I suppose? No use organising a 2000- man event if the government decides you can have a maximum of 500 indoors.
And yes, Brexit has thrown a huge spanner in the works as we all knew it would.
If we're able to host Crisis at all it, will probably be a smaller and more European oriented version.
With orders/parcels from the UK now costing up to 51% more just to get here, we are now looking at- and have already contacted- big European suppliers to fill in the unavoidable gaps.
We' ll certainly keep you posted on any news once we know what is or will be possible."

Also wenns denn klappt, dann wirds der 6. November...

Edit: habe auf Verdacht mal ein Zimmer im Ibis reserviert. Kann ja wieder kostenlos storniert werden.
Edit2: Das Ibis hat mich kostenlos upgegraded und ins Novotel umgebucht...auch nett

Die Crisis 2021 ist abgesagt:

CRISIS 2021 UPDATE
It is with great regret that we have to announce that Crisis 2021 will not be happening. The pandemic situation without clear view on what will be possible in November and under which conditions such as, how many are allowed through the door, will there be a possibility to organise the kind of shows we had in the past where, let's face it, social distancing is not happening at all. Not knowing if any travelling will be able. Will catering be possible ? The simple calcullation between cost and worst case scenario revenue, make it unwise to organise a Crisis in 2021. On top of that the Brexit situation with more than 50% of the traders that are usually attending no longer able to do so without huge customs problems doesn't make it any easier either. Let's hope that 2022 is a better year on November 5th (I know Guy Fawkes night). And who knows a change in UK politics.
Keep safe
