in this Situation, economic Survival. We need to focus on official instructions. For this reason, we welcome the Federal government has now created clarity, and regulations are formulated, which are authoritative for all cantons. The moral question weighed very heavily on our shoulders. Our farms are not like an Opera house that gets spoken at the end of the year money, with or without Coronavirus of money. If we had voluntarily ceased operation, we would have had to to quite a lot of claims without.
How to make the Zurich nightlife behavior now? Will the insistence of the people in the still-open Bars?
we can’t say now yet. The Zurich-based club recorded last weekend, significantly fewer guests. We now appeal to our members, the recommendations of the Federal government to implement. And solidarity to the older people to exercise. The Motto is: Together we must, together, we will dance again.

In the city of Zurich exist about 160 to 180 companies that offer a so-called night-culture. Approximately 2000 employees work in it. Approximately 2000 events are affected by the measure, and about 4000 Bookings of artists. This leads to a loss of around 20 million Swiss francs until the end of April. This includes hundreds of suppliers, and the free Lancer in the industry.
How goes Bar – and club Commission?
It is on the one hand, to the support of the members. We will talk next Wednesday with our members and individual survival strategies discuss. Employment law, insurance issues and things like that. It is now first Support. In a next step, the political work is important, and the question of how we receive support, in order for the night to survive life. As of now, we are calling for a hardship Fund of 30 million francs.
