    massive eye-roll at the response from the festival director

    We very much regret that yesterday’s concert was unexpectedly interrupted by two climate activists from Renovate Switzerland. In general, we support standing up for environmental issues. However, we have no sympathy at all for the way the two activists acted last night. They disturbed our audience as well as the artists

      I cant blame the director for following up on what they were paid to look after as they can’t exactly encourage the behaviour. To be honest this is the best option all around - and hey, if you (the director) expect climate activists to stay on social media and be ignored you should probably stick with doing the same.

        Nah, we can definitely blame them.

        If they can’t handle some true words being said on their event because they care more about their customers (and by extension their money) than humanity, then that is on them.
