\n

The cancellation was made after careful consideration and consultation with the authorities, writes the festival management. Around 40 events in the Basel region are affected. Over 2000 children and young people from twelve European countries and Inner Mongolia would have traveled to Basel to sing for an audience of more than 30,000 people over the Ascension weekend from 20 to 24 May. This was neither justifiable nor feasible in the current situation. The organizers assume that large events will not be able to take place in May either and that travel restrictions and quarantine regulations will still have to be observed. In addition, many choirs have had to suspend their rehearsals, making it impossible to prepare for performances. Although the \"sadness and disappointment\" at this cancellation is great, the decision is \"welcomed and supported in solidarity\" by those affected.<\/p>\n

The festival management will provide information online about any alternative offers. The next EJCF will take place on Ascension Day 2022.
