MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT PRESIDENT – TOM CLEMENTS We are Back Doing What We Love to do, but 2022 will be far from easy. I have to be honest, it’s with some measure of trepidation that I welcome you to the National Outdoor Events Association Yearbook 2022, and the coming year in general. Following two of the most dismal years in the history of the events industry, I wish I could be offering more words of positivity, but at NOEA we do not believe in sugar coating, our job is to be honest and pragmatic. That is not to say that there are no positives for the industry; we should be pleased to be saying goodbye to 2020 and 2021 and I am certain none of the challenges we have ahead of us will reach the despair we have felt in the last two years.
cash flow, and recovering from two years without income. They need further support, or their product will be compromised. This is an industry that is still suffering from a momentous hangover of the last two years, and we need to ensure our relationships are in place and that there is dialogue throughout the supply chain that allows everyone to get back on their feet together. Ok, I have painted a rather depressing picture of 2022 and for that I can only apologise. Maybe it’s the fact that, when I am not President of NOEA, I am a director of Specialized Security, and therefore fully understand the fiscal and mental burden businesses are now facing. We can only get knocked down so many times before we stay down. So, what gives me hope? For me, it has always been about bringing in talent, developing it, and creating a new generation of event professionals to take on the baton and I could not be prouder of the work NOEA will be doing this year around education.
The reality is, we are back doing what we love to do, We have always been strong here. Our sessions last regardless of the circumstances in which we now have year at our Convention, the NOEA Stage at Event do it. Production Show and the virtual briefings we did were all outstanding. This year, we are building again. In But I do want to focus on two areas that I think should partnership with our colleagues at Wasserman and be top of the industry’s to-do list as we go through 2022: Formula E, we are delivering two courses – one on talent and stability. Sustainability, the second on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion – that will run throughout the year, exclusively From the outset of the pandemic, we at NOEA, have for NOEA members. been working our hardest to restrict the potential damage that it would do to our talent pool.

Our industry, which used to be a high demand career, is now These training courses form part of an ambitious year of competing against “McJobs, delivery drivers and white- action that I know will once again nudge this industry collar work” – and we are losing at this time. forward towards success and prosperity. It will not be easy, there is much to do. But I genuinely believe we will This brings me onto my next point, stability. At NOEA get there. we are talking a lot about #BuildBackBetter. For us, this is about getting these people back, but also the I once again thank my fellow NOEA Council members, businesses that employ them.

NATIONAL OUTDOOR EVENTS ASSOCIATION 2022 YEARBOOK
MESSAGE FROM THE VICE PRESIDENTS VICE PRESIDENTS – ALYSHA SARGENT AND CRAIG MATHIE Hello everyone and welcome to this year’s NOEA handbook.
Production Show, meeting you all and telling anyone who will listen just how great and valuable our organisation is.
Over the past few years, I have been incredibly proud to be part of this organisation. Susan Tanner CEO, has worked tirelessly for our industry to make sure our voice is heard. Knowing we have such an involved, passionate leader at the helm is truly inspiring. The commitment of the Council Members must also be commended; attending meetings, conferences, trade shows and heading up campaigns and initiatives, all to represent NOEA and our industry and it is very much appreciated. Finally, a huge thank you to all our members, as without your continued support and involvement we would not exist. We have a wonderful community with a wide range of people and companies, all of whom are here for each other. One of the highlights of the year for me is attending the Event
I have been involved in events for over 20 years now and the magic never goes away. Yes, we know the work is hard and challenging, most of the time in the rain, so why do we do it? We do it because we are who we are. I truly believe it takes a certain type of person to be involved in events. Those people are us! The height of the pandemic was one of the hardest times in our careers. Some lost jobs, some lost companies, some lost clients, and some lost loved ones. But by the very nature of who we are and what we do, we are strong, resilient people who are now on the road to recovery. Our job is to bring entertainment and fun to people, and I am sure that like me, you are looking forward to the year ahead and doing more of what we love.
As I sit here writing this today, the events industry which we all love is still facing a host of challenges. Yet, I am more excited than ever for the opportunity which lies ahead. We have all been through an incredibly challenging couple of years where the events industry has come together to re-assert its value both to the UK Government and the wider public. At the start of the pandemic, we were gloriously self-sufficient and operating a world-leading industry without much fuss or attention. Overnight, the events we took such pride in were rendered illegal and we faced a period of unprecedented uncertainty. Of course, as someone involved in the events world, you know this well and are acutely aware of the specific challenges faced over the following months. Sadly, some incredible people have left the industry and some businesses have fallen by the way. The work of NOEA during these times has been incredible. Obviously, I have an affinity with our organisation but my respect for the organisation has grown immensely having seen its work from the inside. The commitment of our CEO, Susan and our volunteer council has been unwavering; the sheer number of calls, meetings and conferences attended by NOEA
representatives has been staggering. Hopefully, fellow members will have seen the value in our work during this time but, if you know of an area which requires our energy - please do not hesitate to let us know. Anyone who delivered an event in 2021 will be acutely aware of the challenges, a lack of staff, equipment, time and clear government direction. The reality is that many of these challenges will remain for many more months to come. But… The immense value of bringing audiences together, in a safe and professionally organised manner, is now understood by so many more people. The innately human need to socialise and be surrounded by likeminded folk, which has been suppressed for so many months, is about to explode. We stand at a point where our sector will be in demand like never before. A hedonistic decade of celebration, socialisation and exploration stands ahead of us. It will be difficult but we will achieve it together. An events industry to, once again, be incredibly proud of. It is for this reason that I love the events industry, I’m proud to be involved with NOEA and am excited for working alongside fellow #eventprofs for many more years to come. We look forward to seeing you at an event soon! Craig Mathie, Vice President
See you all soon! Alysha Sargent, Vice President

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER – SUSAN TANNER Education, Education … Collaboration! I spend a lot of time with members of NOEA and find them to be an inspiring, honest, and professional group of people. Over the course of the last two years, the collaboration between NOEA, its members and the UK government has ensured the voice of the industry has been heard and understood – if not always acted upon – and has bought us all closer together. It’s been one of the few benefits we’ve seen during 2020 and 2021, but I believe this collaboration will be a crucial factor in our mission, as an association, to support our industry to #BuildBackBetter in 2022. You will have read that, this year, NOEA is embarking on one of its most ambitious years of professional development and education in its history. This is based on our own commitment to get people back into our industry and ensure they stay, but also our desire that the industry takes on big themes that will dictate our standing as a professional industry. However, while this entire strategy is based on feedback from our members, I did want to use this column, not just to wish our members the very best of luck for 2022, and to thank them for their support in shaping their association, but to acknowledge the other people that are so critical in what we are doing, our commercial partners. The reality is that NOEA is an organisation comprising or majority volunteers and often, to get things done to the very highest standards, we need outside input. This comes in the unwavering support of companies like See Tickets, who give us data, opinion, and invaluable insight on the marketplace. We also have our colleagues at Mash Media, who add value to our members through their magazine Access All Areas and their shows, including the Event Production Show.
14
But it also includes those who support us in our education, and I wanted to pick out Wasserman and Formula E specifically on these endeavours. Sustainability and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion are two areas where the industry needs to take action. However, they are also arrears that are fought with mis-messaging and nuance, and that need expertise and experience to navigate professionally. Last year we started a journey with Wasserman around DE&I and continued one with Forumla E on sustainability. These collaborations have allowed us to approach these subjects with the intelligence they deserve and have allowed us to create more credible education for our members. Once again, we’re looking to advance these partnerships in 2022, with two complete workshops on each subject, created in partnership with these businesses. The value of these sessions are thousands of pounds and represent amazing value for our members. But more than that, they allow them to create action led plans that mean that they can negotiate them with confidence and integrity. I’d also like to thank or convention sponsors People’s Postcode Lottery and Lacey’s Solicitors who gave support at our online event . And thanks to all of our sponsors for the time they give to NOEA, and the passion and intelligence they bring to what we do. Its massively appreciated and keeps us on our mission to #BuildBackBetter in 2022. Special mention to Al Turner from 8 PR who has worked beyond his remit the last two years in supporting NOEA ,the Council members and lastly me! Thanks to everyone
NATIONAL OUTDOOR EVENTS ASSOCIATION 2022 YEARBOOK
Susan Tanner, Chief Executive Officer
NOEA SCOTLAND VICE CHAIRMAN – JONATHAN REID 2021 saw another difficult year in the world of outdoor events with an almost empty calendar in the first half of the summer and then possibly far too much later in the year.
Hugely disappointing of course for all involved to lose Christmas and Hogmanay events and as I write it looks like Celtic Connections will again have to cancel through Omicron but we can only hope that its reduced severity continues and that we all get a very productive summer season ahead.
And what a second half of the year it was though – culminating with COP 26 which was a great showcase for Scotland to the whole world. Personally, I do hope something concrete and tangible will result from all the world’s efforts in Glasgow in November.
There certainly seems to be much potential for summer 2022 and I know we are a resourceful and hugely adaptable industry and I wish everyone a safe and prosperous year ahead with full order books and empty yards/stores etc.
I hope our Scottish members were able to recoup as much as possible in the latter months and are seeing orders starting to fill up for the season ahead?
Jonathan Reid Vice Chairman, NOEA Scotland

COUNCIL MEMBERS 2021/2022 ABOUT THE COUNCIL MEMBERS ANDREW MCQUILLAN – Managing Director, The Traffic management Company, Crowded Space Drones, CSD Productions. In my capacity of owning a drone & video production company, I am keen to support NOEA promotional activities in this area (as we have supported the annual conference) and also reactive video content for social media etc to help NOEA exploit new trends & topics. I also support NOEA in policy development areas, especially linked to my areas where I believe I am competent: Drones Health & Safety Crowd Management Traffic Management I also help support NOEA exhibition attendance, such as the Event Production Show. CRIS CICIRELLO – Co-lead, Wasserman Experiential Division, EMEA & Senior Vice President I work as part of the wider marketing team, serving Brands and Properties (Rights Holders) across campaigns and activations. I have worked in around 50 countries over the last 23 years and really enjoyed working within different cultures. Our industry and the event specialism is always facing challenges and right now is no different. We have been members of NOEA for over ten years and are always keen to play a proactive role, improving our environment and ways of working, across areas such as safety, CSR and sustainability. I continue to help the NOEA council in order to try and help our industry as it moves towards the future and the new challenges it faces. IAN BAIRD – Founder, Whiskey Bravo Productions. Ian Baird founded Whiskey Bravo Productions in Brighton in 2016 having worked in the outdoor events and theatrical industries for over a decade. Specialising in medium scale music-based events Ian has constantly strived for better relationships with local authorities and transparency in the planning and licensing processes.

SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTION & BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLANNING Introduction to Events – A “newbies” perspective As an insurance professional with some 10 years commercial experience in the leisure and hospitality industry, you could argue that I’m a relative “newbie” to outdoor and live Events, having undertaken a new role with an AV & Events insurance specialist in the last year or so. In my relative infancy, one thing that has really stood out for me, is an absolute sense of camaraderie, mutual respect, and a willingness to help share best practices with one another to help each other through difficult times and beyond. Whether it’s someone looking for “a contact in France for golf buggy’s”, sourcing “100m LED Festoon in Watford” or even help finding a solution for a “complete event CRM system” (yes these are all actual requests from a social media group) the responses are always crammed with various recommendations and solutions to help, at an alarmingly quick rate I might add. The fact that people stop to take time out of their already busy and, for some, stressful daily schedules and respond with such positivity speaks volumes for me. So, in the spirit of sharing best practice I would like to share some (hopefully) useful nuggets around supply chain disruption and business continuity planning.
Supply Chain Disruption – The road ahead Supply Chain Disruption and Staff Shortages are subjects that have recently hit the headlines with COVID but really can become a huge problem for any business at any given time and not just during a global pandemic. As I sit writing this Storm Arwen is prevalent in the news bringing its own respective disruptive elements……. ITV postponed the live broadcast for I’m a Celebrity for the first time in their history, much to the disappointment of my wife! Now, I’m not professing to becoming an event, supply chain or logistical genius overnight, far from it. Pretty much most of the information below has been obtained from various sources, whether it be general conversations with clients, attending various conferences and generally researching the subject (normally trying to see what free stuff insurers are offering) with perhaps a modicum of experience. I hope you find these useful and informative.
Business Continuity Planning – A back up plan Arguably one of the most important tools against major disruption is a business continuity plan or BCP, as its most abbreviated. The BCP is essentially your go to guide in the event there is a major disruption or incident occurring that can severely impact your business. 24
You may think this is only for the big corporates, or there is not time to think about the next day let alone contingency planning but thinking ahead may just be the business saviour when needed most. Whether you are a micro business or a large multinational organisation, each business will have their own risk tolerance levels regarding disruption which left unaided could threaten the future business trading and ultimately life span. There is no specific list on incidents that can trigger the business continuity plan but it may be worthwhile assessing the major risks to your business and build the plan around them. For smaller businesses and sole traders, business continuity plans don’t need to be as complex as the plans that large corporations have. Typical circumstances could include. Loss of key staff or skills e.g. above normal levels of absenteeism due to illness Loss of a key resource e.g. a major supplier vital to the delivery of a key service Loss of critical systems e.g. IT failure Denial of access, or damage to, facilities e.g. loss of a building through fire When conducting my research, I found that there were lots of business continuity templates and advice on how to write a business continuity plan readily available to download over the internet through reputable commercial insurance providers and various local councils. More and more commercial insurance providers in the UK do invest in providing risk management templates and support to their policyholders because its largely a costefficient method of claims mitigation. Your insurance provider should be able to recommend a suitable professional body or alternatively you can do some research on the internet. Registration to some is free and potentially a decent and inexpensive start point for any business that is new to Business Continuity. However, when it comes to finalising your plan and putting pen to paper it may be prudent to invest time consulting with a professional body as a robust business continuity plan is essentially a critical risk management tool so worth investing the time and effort. Most relevant professional bodies can help with business continuity planning standards and frameworks. They also provide training and resources (many of which are free) to businesses who need help with continuity planning.
Communicate with customers & staff regularly Involve your staff in any risk assessment process from an early stage as they may be able to identify risks that business owners or managers are not aware of. You may also experience an increase in customer complaints during times of disruption but handled
NATIONAL OUTDOOR EVENTS ASSOCIATION 2022 YEARBOOK
correctly it may not be so much of an issue. Communicating with staff on a regular basis, particularly those that are customer facing offering clear guidelines on any changes that occur, how to handle and explain to customers will foster teamwork and give them the tools to address issues and relieve the pressure. Last but by no means least………
In summary there is a lot of uncertainty in life and in business, so, whilst we may not be able to legislate for every eventuality, we can best prepare for what may lie ahead.
Luker Rowe
Insurance and Risk Management Additionally, many commercial insurance advisors will provide lots of support to help you maximise the effects of your insurance policy and therefore minimise the risk to your business. These services may include but not exhaustive. •Review of sums insured (cost of materials increasing) are they up to date and adequate? •Review Business Interruption Cover – most commercial insurances offer an extension to the business interruption section for insured damage occurring at supplier’s premises which interrupts your business. •Access to additional risk management services. Particularly ask the question, what can my insurance provider offer me that will add value to my business?
EVENT WINE SOLUTIONS EVENT WINE SOLUTIONS SMASH EXPECTATION THIS SEASON WITH THEIR SUSTAINABLE PRODUCT RANGE Event Wine Solutions was looking for a recovery year in 2021 and was blown away by customers’ demands for its products in a shortened and pandemic-hit season. With supply shortages dominating the drinks industry, the agile team responded to last minute demands to the appreciation of bar operators all across the country in what was a volatile, yet exhilarating, festival market. 2021 was the year in which Event Wine Solutions attained its goal of moving to 100% rPET (post-consumer, recycled PET) for its wine packaging. The company is helping to provide both a safe and festival-friendly product in a traditional wine-drinking format, whilst championing the re-use of existing, pre-used plastic material. Achieving this key sustainability goal has been a long and arduous journey which began in 2018 when the team visited a recycling plant, Grist Environmental in Wiltshire, to discover the true lifecycle of the bottles’ packaging. Shaken by the complexity of the recycling process and real-world implications for sustainability, the team made a pact to switch to something that was guaranteed to be not only made from 100% recycled plastic, but was also 100% recyclable again after use - something easier said than done! Working with
sustainability consultants to analyse the carbon emissions of different packaging options, Event Wine Solutions spent 18 months working with suppliers to find a preform that made use of post-consumer rPET. The company faced a huge setback in the form of the 2020 lockdown which, as we know, decimated the events industry. However, the team put the time to good use to refine work on a carbon comparison study of the products’ packaging to affirm that using rPET was the best solution for both events, concessions and consumers. The new packaging hit bars at events and festivals in July this year and demand smashed all forecasts. Event Wine Solutions is keen to chat to any bar operators looking to offer wine at events in the traditional drinking format that they are renowned for - 750ml full-size and 375ml half-size bottles. Clients enjoy shorter queues at the bar and a higher transaction spend when selling wine in full-size bottles and they can now do so knowing that they are stocking the most sustainable solution for their customers to enjoy.

Vision 2025 and the NOEA 2021 has been an incredibly difficult year for our industry. Having been severely tested by the Pandemic, many businesses have had to make very serious decisions about their operations and the future. Alongside this, however, the year has been an important one, with greater signs of climate change and the highly publicized COP26 Conference in Glasgow, for looking at all our impacts on the environment. With this in mind, it has been a real pleasure for me, in my first year on the NOEA Council to have been given responsibility for working with the Vision 2025 industry steering group representing our Association. Vision 2025 aims to move our industry to a net zero carbon position which is a real challenge for an industry that has unavoidable large amounts of trucking and often reliance on diesel power generation. If there is one thing we have learnt from the last year it is no longer a choice between higher profits or
better green credentials but by really examining our practices it can often be a boost to profitability when we maximize our efficiency. It is this message that is core to the Vision 2025 mission. Going forward, vision 2025 are looking to produce a “Green Charter” for the industry and to better integrate best practice advice into the main sources of information on which we all rely. Keep your eyes peeled for exciting moves forward coming onstream soon. I know many of you will be asking yourselves the same questions I am, going into 2022, a recovery year for many of us, about what we can do to start making a real difference to the impact our activities have. Here are 3 small starts on what you might consider. Data, data, data I know the biggest challenge for me is knowing where to start. If you manage to achieve one thing in 2022 I would encourage you to do is to really understand your impacts. The Vision 2025 website has some great resources for this and by truly understanding the impact of our diesel use, single use plastics and transport impact you can start to benchmark your position and set realistic goals for the future Plastic Fantastic? This is a big one when we are all still unsure about the hygiene concerns with multi-use products. With extra pressure from COVID risk assessments it would be very easy to fall into old patterns of single use drinks cups and individually wrapped products. I advise you to speak with reusable cup providers in your area to see what can be done to dramatically reduce your reliance on single use products whilst also safeguarding your staff. Food for Thought It is now undeniable that a major cause of climate change is the industrial farming practices and particularly around the meat production industries. Ensuring a good range of plant based food options at your event not only increases the choice for your customers but also means you are contributing to a move to more sustainable food production.

BUSINESS VISITS & EVENTS PARTNERSHIP – BVEP
The Business Visits & Events Partnership (BVEP) is an umbrella organisation representing leading trade and professional organisations, government agencies and other significant influencers in the business visits and events sector. BVEP’s vision is to support sustainable growth for the United Kingdom’s Events Industry. The Partnership has 24-member organisations of which NOEA is one. BVEP ‘s membership represents members from meetings, conferences, exhibitions, trade shows, incentive travel, event hospitality, ceremonies, sporting, cultural and festivals as well as other services provided to travellers and attendees to events. Whilst a truly testing time across all the BVEP partner’s many similar challenges were being faced by most members meaning the narrative to Government representatives including DCMS gained better traction as it wasn’t diluted. NOEA has constantly ensured the outdoor sector was represented within these communications and presented on behalf of NOEA at all partner meetings.
This has led to the formation of a dedicated outdoor group made up of BVEP members whose members are primarily focused on delivery within the outdoor sector. 2022 will be equally as challenging with issues from the value chain through to Brexit and being a member of BVEP enables NOEA the opportunity to present more granular detail on specific challenges the outdoor sector faces.

NATIONAL OUTDOOR EVENTS ASSOCIATION 2022 YEARBOOK
A LAWYER WRITES Ever since he was in his early teens, my son (now aged 29 and 11/12ths) has referred to me as “the old man” and he wasn’t being nice about it. A few years ago, the partner charged with undertaking my annual appraisal had completed his part of the forms relating to “General Attitude” with the single word “Grumpy”. I took umbrage and made a point of going out and buying a T-shirt with the slogan “I never thought that I would grow up to be a grumpy old man but here I am – killing it” which I promptly wore to the office, safe in the knowledge that I had no clients to see that day. My partner was nonplussed but got the point (I think). Yet here I am, writing this and I am indeed a “grumpy old man”. Why? Well to start with, I am now both the longest serving and oldest Council member of NOEA which covers the “old man” bit. “Grumpy” – yes. Why? Because once again I find myself writing exactly what I did a year ago namely “HEALTH WARNING (and it’s not really (but it is) a Covid 19 one) – ANYTHING IN THIS ARTICLE THAT REFERS TO “THE LEGAL POSITION” WILL PROBABLY BE WRONG BY THE TIME YOU READ THIS (which is why this contains no legal advice whatsoever!)” I’m also grumpy because I find that unbeknownst to me, one of my NOEA colleagues doctored a recording of one of the virtual presentations that I did during the last year so that I had a big black cloud looming over me – this apparently on the basis that I was “the prophet of doom”. Things got worse at the (virtual) annual convention when I was asked to take part in the debate about whether the Event Industry was ready to “Build Back Better”. Of course it is (thought I) only to be told that I (as a lawyer) was expected to argue against the motion. To my amazement, the room full of event professionals were tied when it came to the vote which said a great deal about confidence in the Government, if nothing else. The only person not to have voted was yours truly. Decision time – would I vote in favour of my own argument (we’re all doomed) or with my conscience? My conscience got the better of me (we lawyers are actually human you know) and NOEA officially decided that it would indeed Build Back Better. Now, as I sit here a week or
so before Christmas, my confidence is again shaken. The dreaded “No 3” regulation (that’s the one that lets Councils do things like banning events with no notice at all and no effective right of appeal) is with us until at least March and may well be extended. Covid passports and mandatory testing are (today) in force across the entire UK and I suspect that more is to come – who knows? Would I change the way I voted? On reflection and despite everything, I would not. Over the last two years, our very own Susan Tanner, fellow Council members (Editor’s note – you can’t say “fellow” – it’s micro aggression) and colleagues on Council have done a brilliant job of lobbying Ministers and MPs (without paying any of them a penny!) to get them to understand the importance of the Event Industry to not just the economy but the well-being of all of us. In my home town of Ringwood, we were blessed in 2021 with our biggest ever attended Fireworks display and Christmas Market and Lights switch-on – partly due to the weather but also because the timings of both events just happened to coincide with periods of minimal restrictions (and people just wanted to enjoy events again). We continue to plan for the long Jubilee Bank Holiday but the sword of Damocles (or maybe that of a Government Minister) hangs over us as it does for the entire industry. On that happy note, I shall put the T-shirt away, don one of the 5 Christmas jumpers that my daughter has given me with a monotonous lack of imagination since 2016 and bid you all the very best of luck for 2022 – I think we might all need it… Cheers Philip Day

EIAG AND ITS REASON AND PURPOSE OF FORMATION Scotland’s Event Industry Advisory Group (EIAG) was established in June 2020 to represent the sector in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic and provide a coordinated voice to the Scottish Government during the national response and recovery. Since its inception, the Group’s overarching focus has been to highlight the value of the events sector, not just in economic terms, but also as part of Scotland’s national health and well-being agenda, with a view to securing continued support for the sector and advocate for the safe and sustainable return of events. The EIAG has met 27 times over the last two years, with additional meetings across a range of different priority workstreams and working groups identified as key areas of focus and development for the sector. These included Innovation and Good Practice, Event Sector Stimulus, and Health and Wellbeing. We’ve also had regular dialogue with Scottish Government Ministers and their officials, which has ensured a continued voice for the sector at Government level. The diverse membership of the group, which includes NOEA President Tom Clements, has allowed us to collectively represent the views of our wide-ranging industry, communicate the challenges facing our businesses and advocate the importance of the sector
to Scotland. This has involved focusing on a range of topics including COVID-19 vaccination certification, financial support, best practice, baseline mitigations and guidance, event insurance, Standard Industry Classification (SIC) codes and workforce and supply chain challenges. There have been some really critical and significant achievements by the Group, not least the work with Scottish Government to help secure funding for the sector and to support the return of events, assisting with the development of relevant government guidance. In addition the publishing of The Contribution of Events to Scotland’s Wellbeing research project, reinforced the important role that events play not just in the economy but also to the social fabric of our country. This year our priority will be to continue being the voice of the events sector in Scotland and to advocate for appropriate stimulus support from government. The desire and public confidence for live events remains strong, and now with restrictions lifted, it is time for us all to respond to that demand by doing what we do best. By rising to the challenge, we will ensure we can all safely recover a stronger and more sustainable sector that reinforces Scotland’s position as the perfect stage for events both domestically and internationally. Peter Duthie, Chief Executive of the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) and Chair of Scotland’s Event Industry Advisory Group (EIAG).
EVENTSCOTLAND EventScotland is part of the Events Directorate within VisitScotland, the national tourism agency for Scotland. We work to make Scotland the perfect stage for events by developing an exciting portfolio of sporting and cultural events that raise the country’s profile while also bringing social and economic benefits by attracting more visitors. The last two years have been unlike any other in the event sector’s history, however in the climate of consistent uncertainty the sector has shown its ability to adapt by accelerating a range of resilient responses and innovations during this time. We have also adapted to working in new and unfamiliar ways to support the industry’s response by collaborating with a range of partners to deliver a programme of activity designed to support the restart and recovery of the sector. 30
This has included establishing the Event Industry Advisory Group to provide a voice for the events industry in Scotland, and disturbing funding from the Scottish Government through a number of COVID-19 recovery programmes including Scotland’s Events Recovery Fund, Pivotal Event Businesses Fund, and Events Industry Support Fund, to ensure the survival of the sector. In addition to the COVID-19 recovery programmes, we have also continued to support the delivery of events through our existing funding programmes including our International programme, Scotland’s Winter Festivals Fund, and the Themed Years programme, which this year sees us celebrate Scotland’s Year of Stories 2022 with a nationwide programme of more than 60 events, presented by a range of partners from national organisations to community groups. In January this year we also relaunched our National Events Programme to support the development and delivery of live sporting and cultural events taking place outside of Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Ensuring Scotland has a strong pipeline of major events is also a key part of what we do. Despite the challenges of the last two years, the pipeline of major events coming to Scotland remains strong. In 2022 we have the strongest portfolio of golf events Scotland has ever staged in its history, with five major golf tournaments taking place over a six week period through July and August, including the 150th staging of The Open Championship at St Andrews and a first visit of the AIG Women’s Open to Muirfield in East Lothian. We will also host Dynamic New Athletics Indoor (DNA), a new mixed-gender, fast-paced, short and compact team athletics event, and the SUV electric
motor racing series Extreme E is proposed to take place in the Outer Hebrides. Looking ahead, in 2023 Glasgow and Scotland will host the inaugural UCI Cycling World Championships, while in 2024 Glasgow will welcome the World Athletics Indoor Championships, and in 2030 Scotland will also jointly host the 2030 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup with England and Ireland. Supporting the delivery of this strong portfolio of major events alongside a range of new and returning events, EventScotland is helping to ensure the safe return of events and the events industry in Scotland.

MEMBERS NEWS SAFE SPACES AT EVENTS We all like to think that we keep we are keeping the public safe at our events with sound structures, well prepared food, responsible bars, adequate sanitation and so on. And for times when people need help, we make sure that we have trained security, qualified medics and safeguarding in place. However, there are times when our attendees experience something that causes deep distress and requires sensitive handling. Have you considered how to prepare for people who need to be supported in a sensitive manner at your event? Sadly at some events we may we see situations of sexual or domestic abuse. A case sexual harassment or assault can happen at any event. Don’t just think “rape”; think someone exposing themselves or making lewd suggestive remarks, stalking, groping, aggressive behaviour and threat of violence. Sadly any of that can happen at any gathering of people no matter how nice the event may be. Should this be reported at your event, the matter needs to be taken seriously and the victim needs to feel safe and supported. There needs to be an area designated as a “safe space” where the victim can be taken away from crowds and prying eyes or ears where they can feel secure enough to talk about the experience and allow you to help.
And in these early days moving out of the intensity of Covid lock-down, we see our well-being and mental health challenged. More cases of anxiety and even panic attack occur as people start participating in mass gatherings again. People may get triggered by the smallest of occurrences into an intense feeling of dread. And it isn’t just the public who suffer these things. Staff and contractors are as susceptible as anyone else. Give some thought about your events in the upcoming year. Is there a quiet “safe space” where people can go and you can help support? Think about it. Linda Krawecke

MEMBERS NEWS BRIGHTON & HOVE PRIDE Ironworks Studios Brighton – The new home of Brighton & Hove Pride and a unique multimedia studio and event space in the heart of Brighton’s creative quarter, just a 5 minute walk from the main train station. After the devastating decision to postpone the 2020 celebrations due to COVID-19, rather than just go dormant, Brighton & Hove Pride created a spectacular online festival to mark its 30 years of campaigning, protest and celebration and help raise essential funds for our LGBTQ+ community groups. After the success of the event, and as we slowly came out of lockdown restrictions, plans for Pride 2021 went ahead until, due to the uncertainty around variants as well as the logistical difficulties in securing the necessary infrastructure, the heart-breaking decision was taken at Easter to postpone for another year. The ‘TV studio’ was still fully operational and was being used for small productions but thanks to CRG funding the team were able to expand the facilities and build a second larger studio and performance space in order to deliver year-round cultural activity for the LGBTQ+ and local community. The new Studio A features seating for up to 180 people, full lighting and sound desk facilities and Brighton’s only stage revolve. Studio B was also given a makeover and a brand new café, bar and audience reception area created creating a studio complex that easily caters for productions and events from 30 to 300 people. Making great use of their high speed fibre broadband and ability to host a live audience whilst also streaming
to a virtual one, corporate events have included a hybrid event for Brighton Chamber of Commerce and several events for the Brighton Digital Festival, a platform that supports and encourages people across the city to experience and explore digital technology in all its forms. Part of the plan for the ‘Pride at the Ironworks’ season was also to provide year-round LGBTQ+ cultural events to engage with the community and support LGBTQ+ artists and allies, and since opening at the end of July, Ironworks Studios has hosted a range of corporate and community events, theatre, dance and cabaret performances as well as film screens and literary salons featuring over 130 performers. They have also hosted a number of community events at the venue including filming and live streaming Trans Pride Brighton, hosting a watch party of UK Black Pride for Radical Rhizomes, filming Alfie Ordinary’s new ‘Living Legends’ web series and hosting a brilliant Youth Pride event in association with the Brighton Allsorts Youth Project. If one was planning to launch a new business that relied on in-person audiences, during a pandemic would probably not be the obvious choice. Ironworks Studios have shown that, with the right planning and flexibility, as well as a range of services that are adaptable for in-person and virtual scenarios, there is always a space in the market for the right venue.

MEMBERS NEWS A TRADITIONAL ORIGINAL CITY – THE STORY OF SALISBURY’S BRAND
For more information on Salisbury’s new brand, visit the Experience Salisbury website: www.experiencesalisbury.co.uk To find out how to help build our city brand, what’s important, and how to get involved, visit www.traditionaloriginal.com 34
Salisbury is a city that respects tradition but also celebrates originality and is always looking for what comes next. It has evolved over 800 years to be highly relevant today as the modern medieval city and this is the framework within which Salisbury curates its activity and event plans for 2022 and beyond. Back in 2018, following Salisbury’s Novichok experience and in an effort to get the City back on its feet and thriving a project was launched to consider and develop a competitive positioning for Salisbury aiming to stimulate economic investment, attract visitors and build the reputation of the City back up. Salisbury BID, Salisbury Cathedral, Salisbury City Council, SWLEP and VisitWiltshire, with the support of Wiltshire Council, VisitBritain, VisitEngland and others, came together to consider what makes Salisbury special and sets it apart from other places. To develop this idea over 150 people from local businesses, participated in workshops and interviews, and additionally, more than 1,000 residents, stakeholders and visitors added their thoughts. What became clear was that at the heart of the Salisbury experience was a blend of tradition, imagination and individualism that makes the city unique and different from other places. All of this thinking was distilled into just two simple words that perfectly describe our great city. Traditional. Original. To celebrate this, an exciting new Salisbury marque was developed, inspired by the stonemasons that chiselled and crafted the stones that built the city 800 years ago. The angular characteristics of these stones have informed the shape of each of the letters in the word Salisbury. They were co-created using talented young designers from Wiltshire College. As this vision and new marque are becoming ingrained in the essence of the City it has been essential that this influences events and activity in the streets too. As a result, since the beginning of 2021 city stakeholders host a range of events that support the new brand positioning. A great example of this is the Salisbury City Council run Salisbury Street Sellers Market which took place every second Sunday of the month from March to October. The market is a celebration of traditional English crafts, products and produce from a range of local and regional independent sellers. Packed with the quirky and original, Salisbury Street Sellers is designed to support local makers and traders and celebrate the city’s provenance. Carefully curated with themes and child friendly activities it achieved thousands of attendees, with more than 100 local makers selling their items. Boosting city footfall and creating a relaxed Sunday vibe we look forward to its return in 2022. ‘Taste Salisbury’ is a second innovation as a fantastic example of the new brand positioning. This food festival which ran from 27th August to 5th September 2021 showcased and celebrated the high-quality work of our local artisan food and drink producers and our great independent hospitality businesses. Our strong traditions of excellent hospitality and original, interesting and immersive dining experiences fit the strong new competitive positioning. By using the brand, the marque and the ethos, partners worked together to create the new ‘Taste Salisbury’ initiative. The result? Larger audiences, increased spend and a wonderful example of reenforcing our Traditional Original brand positioning. It’s the new way forward for Salisbury as a modern medieval City and becomes increasingly important as towns and cities compete for business. Following the pandemic as we all now try to re-build ourselves we hope that by carefully curating our events offer we will stay relevant and original.

MEMBERS NEWS OUR WORK… SOCIAL BITE- BREAK THE CYCLE
Break the Cycle is a 60-mile cycling event from Glasgow to Edinburgh led by Sir Chris Hoy and followed by hundreds of fundraising cyclists, raising money to build two new homeless villages. The event was created by Social Bite whose aim is to lead ‘a movement against homelessness.’ Josh Littlejohn, founder of Social Bite gave the following statement in a Big Issue article, “The money that we raise from this fundraising campaign will allow these plans to become a reality and enable us to develop communities that will have a transformative impact on people’s lives.” This year’s event was the first ever ‘Break the Cycle’ and raised over £700,000. The ride is now set to become an annual fixture working alongside Pennine Events with the aim of growing every year.
RIVER OF LIGHT
A 2km light trail across Liverpool City Centre with curated light installations from all over the world, lighting up the city and being visited by thousands of people every day. The Autumn 2021 River of Light, themed ‘Rhythm of Light’, was the most to date, seeing 150,000 follow the light trail across 17 days. Pennine events were brought in as the safety company for the event, overseeing a 9 day build and 3 day de-rig across 12 separate sites.

The women’s Tour of Britain was a 6-stage cycling race across 6 different locations with stage 2 being held in Walsall town. Stage two of the AJ Bell race was a 100km race around a circuit in the town centre It was a day spent celebrating Women in sport and the culture of Walsall with three fan zones to support the race as well and celebrate the people and town. It was the first mass participation event in Walsall for several decades and so Pennine Events were brought in to provide support on all elements of the event from traffic management and safety management to production planning and site management.
Cycle Silverstone is a brand new, all abilities cycling event at the world renowned British Grand Prix track, Silverstone Circuit, with a 10k family ride and 20k and 50k time chipped ride.

Appointed as Silverstone’s strategic sports partner in 2021, Pennine Events, combined with Silverstone’s own teams created, marketed, and delivered the brand new, extremely exciting event. The event is now set to be an annual fixture with an ongoing partnership between Pennine Events and Silverstone Circuit. BUILD / BACK / BETTER

Here’s a link to the video on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=p-Te4_gFy7c 38
Without downplaying the devastating impact of COVID on the entertainment industry, the implementation of certain social distancing measures at Classic Ibiza’s sold-out UK tour last summer actually enhanced our audience experience. Classic Ibiza sees the 32-piece Urban Soul Orchestra, DJs and live vocalists perform iconic house tracks in the grounds of six of our country’s best-loved stately homes. Launched in 2016, we have built a loyal UK customer base, with each of our shows attracting up to 8,000 people. Prior to the pandemic we had taken the show to Marbella in Spain and were looking at other opportunities as far afield as Dubai. Like everyone, little did we know what was round the corner! Taking the decision early in 2020 to cancel that year’s tour was difficult, but definitely the right decision. We were fortunate that a high proportion of our audience chose to rollover their tickets and through Arts Council support began to plan 2021. We knew that in order to survive another year we had to put plans in place to enable social distancing and eventually landed on a GPS line marking robot to do this. Sounds very high tech, but in essence it’s the same technology used to mark out football pitches. Apart from factoring in time during the concert build and inputting detailed measurements of the site, the process couldn’t be simpler. We left the robot and the team from MLE Pyrotechnics overnight and a bit like the fairy-tale, “The Elves and the Shoemaker” arrived the next morning to find the work had magically been done. As no physical structures are involved there’s also no issues with health & safety, or extra time needed when clearing the site. Our “social spaces”, a grid of clearly defined areas and walkways marked directly on the grass, were a massive hit with punters and suppliers alike. When combined with more communal areas, such as our “dancefloor”, they provide the best of both worlds – it’s easier for concertgoers to find their party if they have been dancing or visiting one of our bars, and they enable easier access for our various suppliers, including our medical team. We chose to go a few steps further by creating a series of colourcoded zones, denoted by different coloured flags, and used festoon lighting to decorate our walkways. As a result, the site looked incredible, especially once it had gone dark. Clear and timely communication with our audience was of the upmost importance in making our “social spaces” a success. Prior to the show, we utilised various channels, including social media, email, local press, our website and ticket hotline. We also hired extra stewards to assist people once they arrived and ensure that the walkways were always kept clear. I believe it was Einstein that said, “in the midst of every crisis, lies great opportunity,” and this is certainly the case for social spaces. They are here to stay! Lisa Ward, Director of Revival Productions, Promoters of Classic Ibiza

MEMBERS NEWS CONTINENTAL DRIFTS – A YEAR IN REVIEW Like most event companies Continental Drifts stared 2021 with some anxiety about whether events would be happening and cancellations due to Covid restrictions. By May, things were looking much brighter and we were planning several events over the summer. The outdoor event industry has always had to ‘think on its feet’ and 2021 showed us just how good we all are at resiliently finding ways to make our events amazing, no matter what is thrown at us. Our first outdoor event was the innovative ‘Hull History Hunters’ trail; an interactive app-based, family friendly, socially distanced trail, which led participants on a treasure hunt through Hull city centre, discovering exciting facts about the city. We animated the city centre with characters from the different periods of time (using our street performer roster of artists). The feedback from audiences and performers was amazing! Despite the inclement weather, everyone was so happy to be back enjoying outdoor arts again. After this our summer went from strength to strength. Our Global Local programmes (which showcase talent from a diverse range of artists who put a modern twist on traditional forms of music) were back on, including at Camp Bestival, Wilderness, and All Points East in the Neighbourhood. With city centres looking to ‘Welcome Back’ shoppers and tourists over the summer, our programmes of street theatre, workshops and music have been really popular. We worked with Warrington Council to produce and programme performances which were really popular with residents and visitors alike. We experienced the shortage of skilled events workers, rising costs for production and the ongoing disruption to schedules for both artists and crew of Covid. Whilst these were issues across all industries, outdoor events have particularly felt the impact on their work over the past year. Our summer drew to a close with the fantastic Royal Greenwich Together 21 Festival, a celebration of the best of Greenwich which encompassed all aspects of Continental Drifts’ work and was event managed by our team. We programmed a full day of music and performance headlined by Benjamin Zephaniah. To finish the summer we came home to Walthamstow for a fantastic bank holiday Family Weekender with DJs, performers, circus skills and family activities. We expected an autumn rest, but we’ve had an incredibly busy final quarter creating events for Cygnet Square in Thamesmead, Events at Royal Docks, and finally for Christmas the Greenwich ‘Sparkle in the Park’, a light trail with performers, music and local groups showcasing their talent on an open air stage. We’re really looking forward to 2022 when we will be starting the year running events in Lewisham to celebrate their status as ‘London Borough of Culture’ and Lincoln on a programme of city centre events over the February half term. Despite all the challenges of 2021, we believe that outdoor events is still an exciting and thriving sector which will continue to bring art forms to the public, lighting up peoples’ days for many years to come.

It soon became clear that such gatherings would improve the festival industry by simply supporting each other and so the Association was born. Now in 2020/21 we have over 140 festival members and over 100 associate members from the supply industry. Our job is still the same, to support and work with festival organisers in advising, directing, training and the swapping of ideas and support to continually improve our industry. Clearly with Covid our sector has been devastated. We intend to bounce back in 2021/22 and put our festivals back up there where they belong. Our Online Conference (streamed event on Saturday 20 February) was a very successful event. We hope to be able to gather again, in person, over 5 – 7 November 2021.

No matter how small or inconsequential an individual’s problem may seem to you, to them it can be quite a “”big deal””. Having someone who will not only listen to their problem but help in trying to solve it will make all the difference to their event experience. This is where an event welfare service can offer support.The welfare team can offer them help to best resolve their situation. A welfare service may also offer Safeguarding support by supplying certified and vetted persons who will mind a child found without a parent,keeping them calm in a safe space. But a proper safeguarding service goes beyond minding “”lost kids”” into overseeing the safety and welfare of all minors under the age of 18 who are vulnerable and could come to potential harm through alcohol or substance misuse, neglect or abuse. The welfare team can support any vulnerable young person and ensure that they receive help and understanding. Welfare supports people who are troubled, having a hard time, have had bad news - people who need a quiet safe space away from the event activities where they can sort themselves out. A good welfare service will give an event the customer support that will keep people returning to the event again and again and not only that, but when they tell their friends how well they were cared for during a troubled time, their friends will come along too.
