“The culture and events sector has been closed for almost a year. There is no effective state aid, like the opening plan, the authorities do not even talk about it. Filming the MAMA awards can be a great example of how to safely start the event opening and cultural sector.

Of course, all the legal regulations in force in the country must be observed, but the organizers cannot continue to sit with their heads in the sand and hope that the pandemic will one day miraculously end, since institutional officials and politicians actually offer them to them. to this. day.

I hope that the government not only threatens investigations and fines, but also constructively evaluates the opinions of professionals and finally takes proactive measures to approve the rules for the safe organization of events in Lithuania, ”said the Chairman of the RIA Board, Valdas Petreikis.

“It has been 12 months since the events sector closed. It seems that state institutions and politicians are even distracted when we talk about the prospects for opening events. It will have to be done one day, because one more year the business and people will not be able to close at home. It’s time to make micro plans, but start the steps of the opening activities. This whole situation has shown how people’s attitudes towards life are changing in exclusion. And changing for the worse. The restrictions on our freedoms, the inaction of state institutions and some people on stage seem abnormal to us. This situation can have cruel consequences on society in every way ”, summed up the situation Agnė Grigaliūnien miembro, a member of the RIA Board.

“Just as we lived with masks, with disinfectant and we got used to saying hello to each other, so the facts will no longer be what they were. Let’s start working, we will earn money. Because the only way to start safe events is to put them into practice, ”said Marijus Olekas, a member of the RIA Board.
