Valentin Aschwanden is the owner of the “Balz” and “Das Viertel” clubs (the latter also managing director). He is not aware of the new Covid measures of the Basel government. “That is equivalent to closing all the discos and clubs. It would be more politically honest to close the clubs and issue financial compensation for losses accordingly. The nocturnal culture will perish in the short or medium term. It is a catastrophe for the cultural city of Basel! “Then this Wednesday the news: The room and the club’s courtship are closed until further notice.
Hirscheneck closes the winery
The reason is this order of the governing council: it is mandatory to wear a mask in public access rooms, access is limited to 300 people and it is forbidden to consume drinks standing up. The Nordstern Club ceased operations on Monday and complained to authorities. The Hirscheneck closed the winery on Saturday, which had previously held parties and concerts. Telebasel reported on this:
“De facto closure of clubs”
There was also strong criticism from the lobby association “Kulturstadt-Jetzt”. «The current situation was predictable. Until now, the government and administration have guiltily neglected to establish proper planning and communication during the summer break period and to provide support measures for any drastic measures, ”a press release reads. The government is being ordered to present “solutions” earlier this week. Covid’s measures correspond to a de facto closure of clubs.
