French television festival Series Mania has been canceled following new government regulations designed to restrict the spread of the coronavirus. Details:
The French television festival, which had been set to kick off in Lille next week, has been canceled because of the coronavirus.
Organizers on Monday announced that Series Mania 2020, planned for March 25-March 28, has been called off following new regulations, introduced by the French government on Sunday, that ban gatherings of more than 1000 people. French Health Minister Olivier Véran unveiled the ban after the number of coronavirus infections topped 1,110 in France, with some 19 deaths so far. France had earlier banned gatherings of more than 5,000 people in confined venues.
Series Mania had been hoping to carry on despite coronavirus concerns. Organizers last week said they were "closely monitoring" the situation but said they hoped to continue as planned, as the festival hosts around 3000 participants, below the original limit for mass gatherings. Sunday's tighter regulations, however, made Series Mania untenable.
Series Mania 2020 was set to kick off March 20 with the world premiere of the British-New Zealand historical drama
