Festival in Lärz: Tourism weakens, local voices demand change!

The festival in Lärz, which takes place in the picturesque landscape of the Mecklenburg Lake District, is shown by the press in a positive light. However, a regionally based tourism company raises clear criticism of the effects of the event that affect both the local guests and the tourist infrastructure. As Nordkurier , the voice of this company is one of many who are concerned about the challenges with which the region is faced with.

A central problem is the proportion of regular tourists in the holiday parks, which is on the festival weekends below 10 %. This is also due to the fact that many accommodations are occupied by security forces, which significantly limits the space for actual vacationers. Local gastronomy suffers from significant loss of sales, which in some cases reach up to 70 %. In addition, many regular guests are looking for the width due to traffic restrictions, noise pollution and a changed ambience.

The challenge of noise pollution

The volume that prevails during the evening, night and morning not only affects the recreational value for guests, but also deter families, couples and older people. Hosts in the region are increasingly difficult to convey these grievances. There is an urgent need for a better coordination between the festival and the regional tourism industry. The goal should be a balanced cooperation between alternative cultural event and a family -friendly, sustainable tourism.

This is particularly important if you look at the role of the tourism industry in Germany. As on DIHK in detail, tourism is an essential engine for regional development. He supports structurally weak regions, improves the infrastructure and leisure opportunities and plays a crucial role in choosing the location of companies and specialists.

The need for better framework conditions

The need for clear political framework and the consideration of tourist concerns in political decisions is of immense importance. In particular, the availability of affordable living space and measures against the shortage of specialist and labor are central topics that must be tackled so that the attractiveness of the industry is preserved.

The skepticism of the regional companies with regard to the festival illustrates that a stronger focus on sustainable concepts is necessary. A positive image of Germany as a travel destination can contribute to the extraction of new specialists, and it is important to increase the transparency of federal and state funding.

Overall, it can be seen that the festival in Lärz is not only a cultural event, but also has far -reaching implications for the local tourism industry. Cooperation and empathy on both sides are required here to find the balance between entrepreneurship and cultural offer.
