Dear all,
I am part of a small group looking to put on a two day music festival in the northeast, i am going to be part of the safety team at the event.
What i am looking for is real advice from safety professionals who have run or partcipated in this type of event, and or examples of safety plans etc for this type of event. I have the guidance notes from the HSE wich is good, but im looking for experianced views from those who have been involved.
Many thanks
Stew

Hi Stewart
When you refer to HSE guidance do you mean a short leaflet or the actual documents:
HSG 195 and HSG 154
They are both extremly useful documents and you can base your management plan around them. There is also a British Standard (BS 8406) that might be useful to you.
As a past local authority health and safety advisor i worked on the organising of music and public events, if you struggling to get information let me know and i'll see what i can pull together for you, or if you want a chat just drop me a line.
Good luck and regards
Mal

I will send you a copy of the Rules of Management for Places of Public Entertainment which is v useful for any sort of Events Mgt.
Worked over a decade in West End so have a keen insight to this sort of thing - although predominately spend most of it drinking my way through the clients wine list.
