  • Establishments at public festivals, shooting festivals or similar events, fairs or special markets,

By way of derogation, gaming machines may also be set up
  • at public festivals, shooting festivals or similar events, fairs or special markets,
In principle, a maximum of two gaming machines may be set up per establishment.
