NEARBY RESIDENTS
Because of the size of the festival and the sound produced, it is possible to experience nuisance for nearby residents.
We will however stick to the measures we’ve received from Gemeente Amstelveen at all times. There will also be noise measurements from certified companies throughout the day at several different spots on the festival site to check on this.
Because of changing weather conditions and changing wind direction, it is very difficult to tell where the nuisance will be.
We strive to keep it to a minimum as much as possible. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at omwonenden@manyafestival.nl
CAN MANYA FESTIVAL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR INJURIES AND OR OTHER DAMAGES?
