The social and economic pressure on event organizers is increasing all the time: festivals should be easily accessible, the lines should be short, no one wants to see piles of garbage, and still, no one wants to clean up. The line-ups have to be diverse, colorful and inclusive, and yet headliners are needed to attract the audience. And: The pressure from internationally operating groups such as Live Nation is increasing. What are the challenges for event organizers - today and in the future? How do the criteria of sustainability and diversity affect the quality of an event - both positively and negatively? And: Is it possible to organize diverse, sustainable and economically successful events at the same time?
