''Sometimes artists come in a little tense. I then arrange everything for them and take away their stress. Talk to them for a moment, chill for a while. In the end we are all one team. Me, my colleagues, but also the artist and their entourage. That's what makes the work so great: with every performance you work with new people. Different backgrounds, ages, gender. But in the end, partly because of the music, we are all the same.''

''As an employee at SPOT, my duties include wardrobe, ticket control and standing behind the bar. The latter is the most fun. Especially during ESNS. Then the whole city is dedicated to music. My fellow students come to watch concerts during their study breaks. Before I came to work here, I hardly ever went to a show or concert. One day a relatively small artist played in the small concert hall. Country music, not really my cup of tea. But still I went to see it and I have been a fan of his ever since. With music, you discover something new every time.''

''I make sure people feel included during ESNS. From professionals at the conference to visitors to the festival, it's necessary for everyone to feel comfortable. I talk with a lot of people to make sure that ESNS is an inclusive event. For example, we had a safe space set up in the middle of the Grote Markt. Here people could unwind or talk to someone if they needed to. It is important that everyone feels seen and heard. If we work together, we make the festival and the world a bit more beautiful.''

‘’The dynamics is what makes working in ticketing the most fun. The customer contact makes me happy every time. Especially when I can go the extra mile for someone. And you get that appreciation in return. Once there was someone from Switzerland who needed a ticket last minute. He stopped by our office afterwards to thank us. Not with just a handshake, but with bags full of Swiss delicacies. Moments like that make the event an instant success for me.’’ Jet Schuit - Ticketing Coordinator In our series 'Humans of ESNS' we explore the people behind ESNS, from the people working for the organization to the artists on stage.
