The Association of Event Venues (AEV) has published the
latest edition of its eGuide, its code of practice for UK event venue,
organiser, exhibitor and supplier companies.
The guide provides guidance on topics related to event
operation and management, including health, safety and operational planning and
is developed by professionals from UK event venues and compiled in consultation
with its sister associations, the Association of Event Organisers (AEO) and
Event Supplier and Services Association (ESSA).
The latest version published today (10 August) features reviews
of six sections: gas; medical cover; medical demonstrations and treatments;
simulators, rides & inflatables; special effects; and special treatments.
Alden Arnold, head of commercial and projects, AEV, said: “Creating
a safe space for colleagues and visitors is always the priority and the eGuide
provides members across the industry with the supporting material to do that.
“We are always grateful to our members and colleagues who
offer their skills, expertise and time in maintaining the eGuide to ensure its
content is up to date and valid. Their commitment and collaboration results in
this essential resource.”
The 2026 eGuide can be downloaded from the AEV website. There is a version with highlighted changes and the option to download six sections independently for convenience.
