BAR?
On January 1, 2021, the United Kingdom left the European Union for good. Many Flemish organizations have been affected by the (trade) obstacles created by the UK’s departure from the customs union and the internal market. To limit the negative impact, the European Union has allocated the Brexit Adjustment Reserve (BAR) to the member states. BAR funds provide support to projects of affected organizations from all sectors. Applications are made through VLAIO.
Are you selling far fewer tickets in the UK for the festival you are organizing? Call on the BAR to set up a promotional campaign in the UK.
Does the cooperation with the UK become more difficult for your ensemble and do you want to look into new markets? Thanks to the BAR, you can partially recover the operating costs of an agent or manager in a new territory you will be working in.
