Abstract
Provides a set of standards for the buildings, equipment and management of premises which are primarily used for entertainment. Such buildings can present unique hazards to performers, staff and the general public due to the number of people present in unfamiliar surroundings which may be noisy or poorly lit. The standards are intended to apply to indoor venues although much of the guidance will also apply to outdoor events.
