Dekmantel Festival’s 2020 edition has been postponed for a year

Dekmantel has been forced to postpone the 2020 edition of its flagship Amsterdam festival.

The decision follows the announcement earlier this week from the Dutch Prime Minister banning all large-scale gatherings through to August 31 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
