MAAS! CITYWIDE CULTURE FESTIVAL POSTPONED TO SEPTEMBER 2022

It was supposed to be a big party: MAAS!, 2 through 5 September in the inner city and a number of suburbs of Maastricht. With culture as the carrier, but also sports activities and representation of the social field, expats and education, it would be a moment to really come together again. To reflect and celebrate. The first moment to feel the Mestreechter Geis again after a particularly difficult period.
But alas, MAAS! does not receive a permit.

Rejection and postponement
Based on the recently tightened government measures in the TRM (Temporary Regulation on Measures COVID-19), the City of Maastricht has assessed that the festival cannot take place.

Renske Thomas, festival leader, explains: MAAS! is a very large production with many partners and people involved. Due to the diversity of the programme and the size of the event, it is not easy to adapt. MAAS! is a festival for and by the whole city. Many parties and individuals had joined forces to make this possible and the energy was fantastic. This feeling of being together and doing things together must be guaranteed. Therefore, our focus is now entirely on 8 to 11 September 2022. In order to then realize MAAS! with all partners at all locations, in all its glory.
