Dealing with Crime & Disorder

Updated: 8 December 2025

Please note: The information contained in this chapter sets out good practice that should be considered by event organisers. However, it is industry guidance and does not necessarily cover all the aspects that the organisers need to consider for a particular event.

It is good practice to advise the local police in advance of your event taking place as they may be able to provide information on any specific crime risks you should be aware of. They should also be informed immediately if a crime or incident takes place at the event.
