Permanent venues. Temporary events. One management approach.
For event organisers, venues, festivals and organisations delivering temporary or recurring events, including venues that operate as both qualifying premises and qualifying events.
What you're up against
Why this operating model is different
The operating environment changes from event to event: different footprints, different crowd profiles, different suppliers and different people on site. Some organisations run a permanent venue, some run temporary events, and many do both under the same accountability.
The implementation challenge
Martyn's Law duties have to be met each time, but rebuilding the approach for every event produces inconsistent decisions and evidence that is hard to reconstruct afterwards. What has to stay constant is the management system, not the setup.
Challenge → capability
Built on recognised management system principles
Designed to fit alongside existing governance arrangements rather than introducing another parallel management process.

What good implementation looks like
Consistent governance even when the setup changes.
Qualifying premises and qualifying events in the same system.
No reconstruction after the event has ended.
Named owners agreed before the event runs.
Actions and reviews follow through to the next event.
A reportable position across the whole programme.
Evidence for boards, insurers and licensing conversations
Records are generated from live data as the event is planned and delivered, so evidence is available during the event and afterwards, not assembled from memory.
