The decision has been made: with a heavy heart, we are announcing a break year! Even though the Bavarian government has (still) not provided a clear definition for major events, it is clear that there will be no Klangtherapie in its original form. We have thought long and hard about whether there is still a possibility for our get-together. However, we do not see any options for this year. Even if we were allowed to get together with 500 people in August/September, this would be subject to strict conditions. We would see a festival with social distancing rules and face masks as a restriction on the freedom that Klangtherapie is supposed to give us.
Our hearts are crying. We are sad about not being able to turn the Field of Honor into a meeting point for living utopias with you as usual. Not to dance our revolution with you. Not to celebrate our friendships and life in an endorphin-pumping way. We will miss so much! And yet we want to look forward. Just as we want to actively shape change in the world, we also want to see the opportunity within the crisis. We have been given an incredible amount of time in one fell swoop! And we want to use it. For ourselves. For our families. For unfulfilled dreams & wishes. And, of course, for Klangtherapie itself. There are a lot of tasks waiting for us that we hardly had the capacity for during our normal festival year.
What happens to your purchased tickets? As we mentioned in the last update, the Klangtherapie Festival is an ongoing operation and costs do not just arise shortly before the event starts. Invoices for e.g. staff, lease, rent, pro rata fee payments etc. have to be paid throughout the year. This means that money has already been spent on Klangtherapie 2020. This is made possible by the ticket sales and thus your commitment to attend Klangtherapie as a guest. Many organizers, including us, are now facing the challenge of not getting into major financial difficulties. That's why there will be an option to donate your ticket or keep it until next year. For all those who are currently in financial difficulties themselves, there is of course the option of having the ticket refunded minus a solidarity processing fee. However, if we had to refund all tickets already purchased, we would not be able to do so. We are therefore dependent on your support! Everyone who keeps their ticket until next year gives us the opportunity to pay our bills for the time being. That's great and helps us. However, the problem is that we will still be short of this money next year. So feel what and how much you can give. Either way, thank you for your solidarity, thank you for your support!
The options at a glance:
- Donate the ticket price
- Ticket remains valid until 2021
- Cancel ticket minus €10 solidarity processing fee
IMPORTANT: All tickets that have not been donated or canceled by 1.8.2020 are automatically valid for 2021. So if you want to keep your ticket until next year, you do not have to fill out the form. We reserve the right to charge you a surcharge next year if the ticket price increases.
If you have not yet purchased a ticket, you can of course also express your love for Klangtherapie with a donation! Recipient: Klangtherapie Donation account / IBAN: DE18773657920200316989
If the donations received exceed our own financial needs, we will pass on the surplus money to partners of Klangtherapie who are in need. Perhaps we will even be able to create a network of solidarity together and accompany all those who belong to it safely into 2021.
Tickets can be purchased using this form. IMPORTANT: the buyer of the tickets must fill out the form!
THE FORM IS NOW CLOSED.
Have a transformative time,
Your KT-Crew
