The ministry said in a statement on Tuesday that festival programmes would be adapted to hire Croatian artists who have been out of work for some time due to restrictions imposed due to the coronavirus crisis.

Smaller productions or visits will be encouraged taking into account general epidemiological guidelines, and emphasis will be put on outdoor programmes and on adapting seating to make it comply with epidemiological instructions.

It was agreed at the meeting that by the end of May the festival managements would submit to the ministry proposals for the adaptation of their programmes, with the related costs.
