By engaging, and listening to, the organizers, residents, audience and potential audience members — and researching alternative strategies — a completely new vision was developed. This enabled incorporating lighter shows to attract a broader audience, using outdoor space along the beautiful local streams, performances inside homes, in municipal forests of the municipality at the end of hiking tours.

 

The renamed "Music & Nature Festival" — geared to families and outdoor adventures, including horseback riding — was sold out before it opened. Local residents even complained about being unable to participate!
