When to use it

Prepare with the exit plan and update while people leave.

Do not extend one cleared-area report to the entire venue. Exit or transport changes require the appropriate venue or transport operator’s confirmation.

Start with the guide: Plan from the end of the event to the final audience departure

Fill in the template step by step

When to use it

Prepare before closing announcements and update until audience movement and area handovers are complete.

What to have ready

  • Finish time, exit/transport plan and current service information
  • Area plan, observers and access-support owners
  • Venue area-release procedure and emergency contacts

  1. Assign route IDs from audience space to outside transport and link operating-time evidence.

  2. Record actual observation times for remaining people, assistance and route condition.

  3. Report and act on congestion under the site plan; do not improvise exit closures or transport changes.

  4. Hand only the areas released by the venue authority to work teams, and transfer remaining assistance to named owners.

Check your completed template

  • Each exit and transport route has an observer and actual check time.
  • Confirmed and unobserved areas and remaining support are distinguished.
  • Area-release authority, time, recipient and unresolved work are recorded.

What to pass to the next person

Operations sends released areas and remaining support to venue and load-out leads. Confirm receipt by transport or lost-property owners when work continues.

Check before using this template

An estimate of remaining people does not establish safe capacity or compliance. The log does not authorise exit closure, traffic controls or extra transport services and does not replace the emergency plan.
