Introduction to event

2.10.2
Power & Lighting 
It is essential that the Event Organiser reviews and make necessary arrangements for 
the supply and installation of any electrical/power requirements for the event, such as 
the use of generators, extension cords and cables.
It is important to ensure that adequate safety guidelines are followed so that electrical 
leads do not create trip hazards. Lead joints and connections are not to be accessible 
to the public or exposed to damp conditions, temporary electrical leads must be 
flexible cables and double adaptors and piggy-back plugs are not to be used. 
2.10.3
Water 
Water is required for multiple uses such as catering, entertainment or cleaning 
purposes before, during and after the event.
All taps located within the selected venue should be checked to ensure they are in 
good working order prior to the event. Where any deficiencies are identified they are 
to be reported to the concerned management at the earliest possibility to enable the 
problem to be repaired prior to the event.

Sanitary Facilities
It is the responsibility of the Event Organiser to ensure adequate sanitary facilities 
are made available for participants. The number of toilets to be provided will depend 
on a number of factors including:

 the duration of the event 
 are the toilets accessible to people with limited mobility and parents with 
small children 
 to ensure toilet supplies are restocked and for safety and cleanliness 
regularly
 wastewater management 
 availability of a plumber throughout the event for repairs and blockages 
 Temporary Structures & Staging
 Tents, marquees and portable stages all qualify as temporary structures 
and if being used at an event should be marked on the Site Plan.
