Event managers know that "Load-in" is where the event plan meets real life.

Early vehicles. Late suppliers. Wet ground. Tight access. Blocked routes. None of these problems need to become a crisis, but they do need planning before build day.

This Purvis article looks at how event organisers can control access, vehicle movement and supplier sequencing across sports events, shows, corporate events and public sites.

As an Event Manager you'll know a bad access plan cannot be fixed by a marshal with a radio...

For large outdoor events, vehicle movement affects everything: build schedules, public safety, emergency access, ground conditions and supplier coordination.

This article looks at what Safety Advisory Groups (SAGs) and local authorities need to see in a serious access plan, from timeboxed vehicle movements to mud recovery and emergency routes. (1st comment)

If your event depends on temporary structures, access planning needs to start before the site opens.
