The performance at the Festival on the Ring in Amsterdam that was stopped because visitors had climbed over the fences, was able to continue for the last half hour of the festival. Now that the party is over, visitors are 'gradually' leaving the site.
Several entrances were closed and the music was temporarily stopped. The party was over shortly after 10:00 p.m.
The Festival Op de Ring was a big party yesterday. If you can't get enough of it, missed it and just want to enjoy it again, you can watch the Mokums Lied op de Ring below. An hour of real Amsterdam sing-alongs. Dries Roelvink, Mick Harren, Peter Beense and Maggie MacNeal will be singing a moppie.
More than 200,000 people visited the Festival on the Ring in Amsterdam, which, according to the organization, seems to have passed without major incidents. "In most places it was busy but manageable," says a spokesperson. Only the 'highway rave' of Audio Obscura was temporarily stopped, because it became so busy there that people climbed over the fences.
