Based on the ban on major events, and travel recommendations with regard to travel and the use of public transport, the annual arts festival was unable to proceed in a traditional manner.
"We've decided to do something bold and something we have never done before. From 25 June to 5 July 2020, the National Arts Festival will be going completely virtual for the full 11 days of amazing," said a statement released by The National Arts Festival on Tuesday. "Artists depend on festivals like ours to generate an income through selling tickets, getting their work seen and talked about locally and internationally, and networking with their peers. Rather than cancel, we aim to create a new opportunity for artists and audiences alike to celebrate the arts, and to create an accessible platform for artists to share their work."
Regarding economic stability, the statement says:"We know how much income our festivals contribute to the infrastructure and economy of Makhanda. We remain committed to the city and will continue to play our role as good corporate citizens."
