Open air festivals about climate change

Being outside in a 21th-century summer season will bring challenges in all possible ways. Protect

yourself against the sun, but also against heavy rain and following mud. How do open-air festivals

deal with maybe 3 or sometimes 4 seasons of weather in a single 4-day edition of a heavy metal

festival? How expensive is a festival with extreme weather? What are real showstoppers, and what

can’t be, in any form at all? And what does it take to prepare yourself for all possible scenarios?
