Full Statute Name:  Supreme Decree 004-2019-MC, 2019 - Peru

Summary: This law aims to regulate the criteria for evaluating whether a public event can be considered, or “qualifies,” as a non-sporting cultural event. Such events that may fall into this category include, but are not limited to, opera, ballet, theater, and circus. The law modifies Law 30870, which established the criteria for evaluating whether a spectacle can be considered a non-sporting cultural event. Specific to animal law, the law states that the messages and actions in the event must not incite hatred or violence against animals or other non-human living things.
