Revised to align with recent law changes and event industry best practice. Provides ‘tried and tested’ advice on which to organise health and safety at music events, although many chapters may also apply to other gatherings sharing similar characteristics.

Intended to enable organisers, local authorities, emergency services and HSE to work together to improve safety. As such, this guidance was devised in consultation with an event industry working group. In addition to broader safety headlines, such as venue and site design, fire procedures and major incident planning, the guidance also scopes pertinent circumstantial issues.

Accordingly, specifics like transport, barriers, electrics, refreshments, merchandising, amusements, attractions, sanitation, noise, vibration and many other relevant subjects are also considered.
