concessionaire system, by which the Municipality of Buenos Aires had contracts with
Explanation:
From the website of the Teatro Colón:

"History
Milestones in the History of the Theater

From 1908 to 1925, the Teatro Colón was run with a concessionaire system, by which the Municipality of Buenos Aires had contracts with concessionaires. These contracts established the artistic and financial obligations of the concessionaires, controlled by special commissions that intended to represent the season ticket holders. This system failed to work, because the concessionaires included mostly an Italian repertoire, while the public wanted a wider repertoire."
