Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist is designed for venue and theatre staff to verify that all safety aspects of amphitheatre and bandstand operations are addressed before, during, and after a concert or festival.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑event inspection of outdoor stage structures and weather protection measures.
  • Verification of tiered‑seating safety, access routes and fall‑prevention controls.
  • Management of public and crew interaction zones, including barriers, signage and emergency routes.
  • Ensuring compliance with relevant health and safety legislation for concerts, festivals and events.

How to use: Review each question with the responsible team member, answer Yes, No or N/A, and record any required actions. Re‑check any items marked No before the event begins and conduct a post‑event review to capture lessons learned.

Key responsibilities include confirming that all safety checks are signed off by the designated safety officer, that any identified hazards are mitigated before the event starts, and that records of inspections are retained for audit purposes. This ensures ongoing compliance and provides evidence for inspections.

During the event, monitor real‑time weather alerts and crowd density, and be prepared to pause or modify activities if conditions become unsafe.

Compliant with: Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, Health and Safety (First‑Aid) Regulations 1981.

Fully editable and shareable.

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

What types of safety checklist can I create?

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

How often should safety checklists be completed?

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.

Are the checklists a substitute for a risk assessment?

No. A checklist is a monitoring and inspection tool that complements your risk assessments and method statements — it helps confirm that controls are in place and working. Use them alongside your risk assessments.
