Based on the information provided by its members, Pearle* put together a map to visualize the re-opening of Live Performance in Europe. The launch coincides with the virtual Pearle* members conference which takes place from 27 to 29 May.
As the map shows the situation differs from country to country, with some countries allowing already performances for a small number of audience, whilst on the other extreme, some countries haven’t announced any date yet regarding re-opening of venues.
Insofar as possible the map also provides information regarding a country's rule on people allowed in a venue or for outdoor performances. One can observe from this information that there is no common approach between countries on this matter. This was addressed by Pearle* in an
open letter ahead of the Culture Council meeting on May 18
th.
Whilst Pearle* members acknowledge the specific health prevention conditions and adhere to those, the live performance sector aims to open on the basis of full capacity. Without this possibility the costs are disproportionate with the limited box office income. In this case they call upon governments to compensate such losses.
The map can be accessed

The map will be continuously updated according to information received.
