The Eutin Festival in Germany has announced it will cancel this summer’s event. Eutin is a town near Lübeck in northern Germany and the birthplace of composer Carl Maria von Weber. This summer would have marked the festival’s 75th anniversary and celebrated the 200th anniversary of Weber’s death.

The cause is financial difficulties, with major donations drying up and no prospect of reopening next year. It was known as Germany’s largest open-air opera festival, featuring performances of operas and plays including Weber’s 《Der Freischütz》.
