Welcome to the Working With Crowds We are a resource website focusing on Crowd Management, safety and security.
It is not often that guidance comes along. In this case it has never been more relevant. Aimed at those events and crowded places that we tried to shoehorn in those bigger pieces such as the Green and Purple Guide. Written to be easily adopted by all and understood. If you are in the live events industry, then this is for you. #crowdsafety

Chapter 13 provides a very high level summary of what should be considered by organisers/promoters of events in smaller indoor venues (up to 5k capacity) when determining the event healthcare needs of their anticipated audience.

Brand rules all. To be uncurious is to fail. Balance the Force: science and voodoo. Commerce and creative intersectionality. Commune with the masters: Kaizen, Sun Tzu, Carlin, and Jobs. Avaritia malum.
It is absolutely necessary that the monopolistic racket of Ticketmaster/Live Nation Entertainment be dismantled by this important effort of the U.S. Department of Justice. Especially when they’re the only entity powerful enough to do it right, with teeth, and not as likely to give in or be held hostage by their predatory practices as we have seen at local levels. (For example, here in Grand Rapids with the recent announcement by the Grand Rapids/Kent County CAA that yet another venue would be held hostage to a deal with Live Nation.) It won’t be overnight, but the long game is looking much better for disrupting their many cheat-to-win tactics, and freeing Kent County and others from the stranglehold this cartel has held in live events for far too long. If you’d like a great basic summary, this NPR update is a good option.

The Department of Justice (DOJ), along with various state attorney generals, have recently filed a case against Live Nation and its subsidiary Ticketmaster for violation of competition laws. The Department has alleged the following among other things: 1) Live Nation has acquired actual and potential competitors, and leveraged control over concert promotion and key venues to monopolize the ticketing market and exclusive dealing respectively. 2) Live Nation weaponized its control over large venues to force artists to use its services as their concert tour promoter. This control over tour was circled back to further cement its position in large venues market. 3) Ticketmaster’s long-term exclusive agreements with terms ranging from three to 14 years block rivals from the only significant channel of distribution to major venues. The petition could be accessed here: https://lnkd.in/gHZ-BHAt The Department has sought trial by jury for most of the allegations made. #Livenation #Tickmaster #largevenues #concertpromotion #ticketingservices

L👀king for festivals & events to take part in my ground-breaking research on safety in music.
Not sure what more there is that hasn't already been said? - timely and needed good practice guide for venues (up to 5000) - mainly centred on crowd management, but touches on a host of other factors - written (and edited) by some outstanding individuals - starting to fill an identified gap - too indoorsy for the Purple guide, not sporty enough for the Green guide, not technical enough for the Yellow. Will this evolve to become the Blue guide?? 🤞
