Planning the evacuation in the event of an emergency is an important part of event planning.

As well as general event emergency procedures, you can consider including:

  • Accessible communication strategies such as:
    • Visual alerts for the Deaf community or people who are hard of hearing
    • Calmly using easy English to let people with intellectual disability know what to do
  • Designated event staff or emergency services personnel to provide additional assistance as required
  • Multiple evacuation routes and assembly points, and making sure event staff are aware of these.
