Opening the school ceremony with the recitation of the Qur'an in the presence of forbidden matters

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I am a student in one of the schools, and they chose me to open the schools' closing ceremony by reciting the Qur'an only. The question is: Is there a sin on me for doing so, given that the ceremony includes some theatrical scenes, some songs, and will be filmed with a video camera?

Answer:
Yes, do not recite the Qur'an in this mixed gathering that contains these matters. This is a disgrace to the Noble Qur'an. However, if the gathering is pure, a gathering that contains no forbidden matters or trivial things, then there is no harm in reciting the Qur'an. Yes.
