Two weeks ago, ESSMA launched the second part of the COVID-19 reporting. This part focusses on some practical implications of the return to the stadium for fans.
COVID-19 heavily impacts all industries that bring together big crowds. In order to inspire our members on how to organize a safe return to the stadium for larger groups of fans, we consulted Wilfried Covent from BrusselsAirport and Frank Wijnveld from CrowdProfessionals.

Interesting times ahead, where learnings of those who already restarted are of vital importance to their peers. ESSMA interviewed several stadiums to collect their insights.
In 2018, Romanian football club Steaua Bucharest released designs for a total reconstruction of its legendary Ghencea stadium in preparation of Bucharest’s hosting of part of the EURO 2020 tournament. With a focus on multifunctionality and community use, it is obvious that the stadium’s legacy was kept in mind in the design process.
On Tuesday 6 October ESSMA will organise its virtual Pitch Management e-Workshop. Even though this year's edition will take place online, we will livestream the e-workshop from the pitches of OH Leuven. As we still want to offer the experience of standing on the pitch, you will have the opportunity to join a virtual pitch tour around the OH Leuven facilities.
