Overcrowding at specific exhibits
— Monitor the flow of visitors and restrict access to high-demand exhibits if necessary. Use timed entry or a queuing system to manage crowd sizes.
Inadequate crowd management
— Assess expected attendance and plan crowd flow to prevent congestion. Employ trained crowd management personnel to monitor and guide attendees. Use barriers and signage to direct movement and maintain order.
