The year 2019 was a record year for the music venues and music festivals in every respect. Never before did the venues and festivals programme so many events and artist performances, and attracted so much audience, as in 2019. Never before did so many employees work so many hours to make all of this possible. This resulted in both artistic and financial records. At the time of the publication (October 2020) of these 2019 annual figures, we are still in the middle of a pandemic. COVID-19 is perhaps the biggest spoiler in the history of the live music sector in the Netherlands. Mid March 2020, all music venues had to close their doors abruptly. Events and festivals were banned. No activities could be organized by order of the government. The effects of this are still devastating: artists can no longer perform, workers no longer have a job, the audience can enjoy less live music. A great deal of damage is suffered in our experience economy. The Dutch government sees that - especially now - the cultural sector is important and, together with local governments, has generously supported parts of the live music sector during this crisis. The live music sector is very grateful to the government for this. From the summer of 2020, on a limited scale and under all kinds of restrictions, only mostly unprofitable activities are possible. Venue organizations and live music organizers are nevertheless in survival mode. They depend on limited, and otherwise very welcome, financial support from the government and are forced to reorganize and lay off personnel on a large scale. Almost all VNPF music festivals had to reschedule their festival edition 2020 to the, now increasingly uncertain, next year. This leads to an enormous loss of performances, visits, income and therefore damage, for the festivals and the entire ecosystem of suppliers. We can safely say that 2020 is the year of missed opportunities. 1 VNPF Simplon Stadspark Live members Into The Great Wide Open Vera Welcome to The Village Bevrijdingsfestival Fryslân SPOT / Eurosonic Noorderslag De Oosterpoort Bevrijdingsfestival Groningen Neushoorn 2020 Rockit Het Bolwerk Iduna Members Data VNPF members in members October 2020 2020 2019 Large music venues (1000 or more) 18 17 Holland International Blues Festival Medium sized music venues (400-999) 25 21 Small music venues (less than 400) 16 15 Manifesto Indian Summer Total music venues 59 53 Hedon Victorie Total music festivals 52 52 PX P3 Strawberry Fields Festival Corneel TOTAL MEMBERS 111 105 Bevrijdingsfestival Overijssel De Flux Lowlands Tolhuistuin Bevrijdingspop Haarlem Bevrijdingsfestival Amsterdam Het Vrije Westen Patronaat De Meester Melkweg C2C: Country to Country Once In A Blue Moon Bevrijdingsfestival Flevoland Burgerweeshuis Paradiso Metropool Duycker De Vorstin P60 Royal Park Haringrock FLUOR Tuckerville Gebr. de Nobel Catch EKKO Gigant Le Guess Who?
