The applications are reviewed regarding feasibility, and through joint discussion, advice is given on how a music venue can be made possible. The Musicboard reserves the right to decline for various reasons. Reasons for this include no prospect of official approval for open-air locations, other music venues in the immediate vicinity (within hearing distance), non-compliance with the General Agreement, the values of the &#8220;F\u00eate de la Musique&#8221; or the German constitution.<br><br>If there is nothing standing in the way of participation, a cooperation agreement will be concluded with the Musicboard.

However, the &#8220;F\u00eate de la Musique&#8221; is a music festival which, according to the basic concept (General Agreement), should predominantly take place outside and in the open air. A stage program after 10 PM can, in accordance with the official approvals from the environmental agencies, only take place indoors. All music venues must be accessible for people with disabilities and have free entry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9b272f02 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">What needs to be considered when choosing a music venue?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, noise protection must be observed, whereby in addition to the general measures (e.g., sound direction, volume) to protect residents and neighbors, there are also facilities worthy of protection (hospitals, nursing homes, memorials, etc.) that preclude use. All open-air music venues require a noise exemption permit from the environmental offices. These are applied for by the Musicboard for participating music venues. For public areas, approval from the streets and parks departments is also necessary. Also, there should not be another stage within hearing distance. The size of the area or room should be sufficient so that visitor flow does not create conflicts with pedestrians, and traffic routes (pedestrian and bicycle paths, streets) remain free at all times.<br><br>The necessary permits from the environmental offices according to \u00a711 LImSchG Bln (for all open-air music venues &#8211; private and public areas) are obtained by the Musicboard from the responsible district offices. There are no costs for this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">What permits do I need for a music venue?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone who wants to use an area on public streets or green spaces for a music venue needs a permit from the responsible district office. For this, an informal application for special use of public street land according to the Berlin Street Law and for permission according to \u00a729 StVO must be submitted. For operating food and beverage stands, a permit (e.g., permission according to \u00a712 GastG for the sale of alcoholic beverages) must be obtained from the responsible public order office. The permits must be applied for independently, at the latest 9 weeks before the event. The applicants bear any fees incurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participation itself \u2013 as a music venue within the framework of the &#8220;F\u00eate de la Musique&#8221; \u2013 is not subject to any fees.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9b272f02 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">What costs are incurred when organizing a music venue?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A general or even numerical statement cannot be made here, as music venues can be very different. From a &#8220;music carpet&#8221; with an unplugged program to a very large show with a covered festival stage, many things are conceivable. Possible costs arise primarily from technology and logistics (sound, lighting, stage), official permits (fees), insurance (event liability), sanitary facilities, security measures, waste disposal and cleaning, etc. The personnel and organizational effort also ties up resources, according to the scope of planning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">What should I consider if I&#8217;m planning a street closure at my music venue?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A street closure causes high costs (fees, traffic sign plan, barriers, security personnel, etc.) and means additional organizational effort. Often, the closure of a street is rejected by the authorities or subject to high requirements (especially if public transport lines are affected). For this reason, the Musicboard generally advises against a street closure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9b272f02 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">Can I organise my stage program myself?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. Stage organizers are independently responsible and free in their selection of artists and genres. For the benefit of visitors, attention should be paid to a certain length of the program or the number of performances, and sufficient breaks should be planned for changeovers. The Musicboard offers a matching service for musicians through the matchmaking tool.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">Can I sell food and drinks at my music venue?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. The organizers of a music venue organize the food and beverage service themselves and independently obtain the necessary official permits (including permission according to \u00a712 GastG for the sale of alcoholic beverages). The number of food and beverage stands should be appropriate to the location and the expected number of visitors. As a music festival \u2013 unlike street festivals, for example \u2013 only a limited number of stands are usually permitted by the authorities within the framework of the &#8220;F\u00eate de la Musique.&#8221; Operating a food and beverage stand without official permission is not advisable, as the public order offices carry out regular inspections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9b272f02 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-6);border-top-width:1px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:600\">Do I need to register my stage with GEMA and pay license fees?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>No. The Musicboard takes care of the entire process with GEMA and also covers the costs for the license fees. The organizers are only obligated to collect the GEMA music sequences from the musicians and transmit them collectively to the Musicboard.<br><br>ATTENTION!

Starting points can be: energy (use of green electricity), mobility (call to use public transport and bicycles, use of cargo bikes for logistics), resources (waste prevention, reusable and deposit systems), catering (organic food, cooperation with regional suppliers), area (cleaning, measures to avoid soil compaction on green spaces).
