La Mecànica will be at Spoffin 2024
Spoffin stops... What's going on?
09-08-2024
In July, the sad news came out that the 2024 edition will be the last edition of the Spoffin festival. After the municipality of Amersfoort had rejected the subsidy application for the period of 2025-2028 earlier this year, the objection of the organizing foundation Zomertheater Amersfoort (ZTA) was also dismissed in July. This threatens to make the only theater festival in the city disappear and the Netherlands loses one of the largest and most progressive international street festivals.
