Hamburg (dpa) - Hamburg's Senator for Culture Carsten Brosda (SPD) wants to enable an open-air cultural summer for the Hanseatic city from mid-July. You really want to go into the public space for four weeks, when we are down with the incidences and more people have been vaccinated, said Brosda in the podcast, "What's the situation?" the Gute Leude Fabrik and the “Hamburger Morgenpost”. "Then I would like us to be able to use the stages that we build, with the opportunity to perform, to give many artists another chance to create culture and to get money for it." At the same time, they want to “bring culture back to the people in our city”. The focus should not initially be on large events with external artists,Instead, according to Brosdas, there are a lot of artists from Hamburg performing.

Brosda, who is also President of the German Stage Association, expressed the hope of starting the next season with halfway restrictions.

"And that's where we want to put an exclamation mark in the public landscape in summer."

That is the plan if the pandemic doesn't put a spanner in the works.
