Landlords pay more
There will probably be after-work parties this summer too
Discussions about the after-work parties for this summer began at 8 a.m. on Tuesday at the Benediktinermarkt. The city cannot pay anything extra. But the landlords are helping out. The first three dates have already been set.
The after-work parties have always been a big hit in the first five years. "The number of visitors was so huge every Friday that it was almost over the limit," says market spokesperson Christian Cabalier. "I had 500 seats too few in the cooking workshop at every festival."
All the market caterers have made a lot of money. In the last two years, they have contributed 50 percent of the total expenditure, which amounts to around 60,000 euros. This year, the city has no money because of the twelfth budget, which means that the restaurateurs have to pay more.
"Last year it was staggered. Michael Stultschnig is ideally located and paid 800 euros per event. Other stallholders further down the line paid half that amount," says Patrick Jonke from the mayor's office.
"This year, everyone has to pay 25 percent more. The city provides the marketplace, cleaning and set-up work. We already had two or three private sponsors last year. They are also involved this year."
Cabalier listened to the discussion with the market caterers. "In recent years, a few people have asked me if they could be organizers. That wasn't possible. Maybe this year it will be."
The band and DJs are to remain the same, with an after-work party lasting from 4 to 10 pm. The first three dates have already been set. "This year, we will be organizing one party per month in summer, which is what many stallholders want. It starts on May 23, the next after-work parties are on June 20 and July 25. The dates for August and September are still open," says Jonke.
Bold sign from the market
Market consultant Christian Scheider is also pleased with the outcome. "That was a super signal to the politicians. You can't give up in difficult times, you have to stick together. That was a courageous signal from the market. The parties could do the same with the budget. Then we would have one sooner."
