The news comes after the Netherlands government extended a ban on public events.

Dekmantel has been postponed until August 2021. The festival will keep the line-up originally booked for this year’s event and remain at the same venue. The news comes two days after the Netherlands extended its band on public events until 31 August.

“Losing Dekmantel Festival this summer does have a massive impact on our small team, as well as the wider network of people we work with all year round: musicians, artists, producers, partners and countless freelancers,” the festival organisers said in a statement. “As such, we would like to take this opportunity to ask that you continue showing empathy for and actively supporting your favourite artists, labels, venues and all other initiatives in the creative sector wherever you can. We need each other more than ever at a time of unprecedented turbulence.”

Dekmental will take place 4-8 August 2021. Read the full statement below.
