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.
The implementation of safety and hygienic measures is top of mind for stadium management all over Europe, as now they are welcoming thousands of fans back in the stands.
As we experienced technical problems during the Questions and Answers session from FC Tokyo during the workshop, we gladly present you this digital version.
COVID-19 has transformed the stadium industry completely over the last months. As a European observatory, ESSMA created a COVID-19 report to give a full overview of the impact and subsequently alternative uses at stadiums and insights on how to re-welcome fans in a safe manner.
Yesterday, ESSMA ventured into the world of online workshops. A global speaker line-up was presented, from Japan over Europe to the USA. They all had one thing in common: the desire to share insights in the field of crowd management during COVID-19 times.
