Typical hazards & measures
- Parking congestion — Use volunteer marshals, cones, and signage to control flow. Reserve disabled bays, encourage carpooling, and direct overflow to safe locations.
- Crowd congestion at peak times — Use pre-sold tickets or timed entry, set a venue capacity, place barriers, and have roving stewards. Create one-way routes, widen aisles to 2 m, and clearly mark exits.
- Inflatable or ride operation — Hire only insured operators, inspect daily, limit users by age/weight, and use anchoring per manufacturer guidelines. Position rides away from power lines and entrances.
- Volunteer fatigue — Assign shifts of 2–3 hours, provide seating and refreshments, and rotate roles. Hold a briefing and debrief so staff feel valued.
- Temporary staging or marquees — Erect structures with manufacturer instructions, ballast correctly, inspect for wear, and close if wind exceeds rated speed. Schedule setup well in advance and inspect hourly.
