Keeping Christmas Market goers informed and safe

Kingsford Events helped keep around 130,000 visitors to the city centre based Christmas Market safe with the installation of their public address systems covering all part of the city centre where that the event occupied.

Using their modern public address system equipment, Kingsford Events installed - during the nights prior to the event, so as to minimise disruption to normal city centre operations and public foot traffic - 2km of cable to create a 4 zone system.

The system was controlled from the event control room based on the edge of the city centre event. Announcements could be made from the control room or via a dial in telephone connection, allowing the emergency services and crowd management team to speedily communicate with the public for general messages or in the case of emergency messaging.
