When it comes to summer's festivals; it has been agreed that they will follow the advice agreed upon by the government's expert group: as it looks now; outdoor festivals will be able to be held with 2.000 standing guests divided into groups of 200 people. From August 1; it will be raised to 5.000 people with sections of 500 people. However; that limit may be raised to 10.000 persons 'when deemed medically sound.'
