Brussels Iris Festival Faces Reduced Activity

The annual Iris Festival in Brussels is anticipating a significant drop in activity, with organizers estimating a 30-35% reduction in business. This decline is attributed to concerns about the festival's impact on local businesses, particularly highlighted by Ariane Deguelle. The festival, traditionally spanning multiple days, is now planned for a single day to mitigate these economic concerns.
