The festival also posted a statement on their current financial problems
We are really sad to tell you this but our financial plan drastically changed since last week when we received message that we will not be granted the government fundings we could count on and helped us evolve for the last 7 years. The festival set-up will be a little bit bigger but that will cost us €0 extra, thanks to our amazing technical team. We increased the line-up budget with 10% which would have been covered with the slightly higher ticket prices (and the usual government fundings). So for now we are facing a financial deficit that is just too big to ignore.
It's a shame that financial setbacks like these affect such an awesome festival and many propositions have been made to help the organisation. Recently, they added a donate button on their homepage: http://www.dunkfestival.be/donate/ Support will obviously be highly appreciated.
