BACK TO LIVE
Sample event under COVID-19 conditions in the Fredenhagen Hall in Offenbach
The sample event in the Fredenhagen Hall in Offenbach on 9 June 2020 impressively demonstrated how events can be held safely despite the current COVID-19 pandemic. With the help of numerous event professionals, various event scenarios were set up, taking into account the medically necessary safety and hygiene concepts according to the latest R.I.F.E.L. guidance. Finally, a bit of normality again — a safe yet enjoyable experience.
The FAMAB invited visitors to the Fredenhagen Hall under the motto "BACK TO LIVE". The aim was to show guests how it is possible to hold live events held again. And it was a success!
During a talk on stage with presenter Aljoscha Höhn, the organisers—among them Christian Eichenberger of Party Rent Frankfurt—explained how the idea came about and was put into action.
Numerous representatives from the events industry presented their reliable solutions to live events during the COVID-19 pandemic across the entire event location. In this way, even under the current conditions, it was possible to create pleasant, inviting atmospheres, experiences, networking areas, catering areas and a large stage set-up with many seats, which were all adequately distanced without any sort of negative feeling. The signposts on the ground were instantly noticeable — the one-way system was implemented in the entrance area, as well as throughout the venue and at the bar. Besides this, everything felt like a normal event. The venue was well decorated in an industrial style, it was just a little more spacious with room for distancing. And this is exactly how events like this will be made possible again in the future. It was even a pleasant experience that left you wanting more.
Catering meals were offered in glass containers, which was an impressive touch in terms hygiene, taste and aesthetics. Digitised counting and separation systems were used, and there was even a dance floor that could be used without violating any social distancing rules thanks to measuring and projection technology. Guests were accredited via a digital system in advance and at the event, including health check. These are just a few measures implemented at the FAMAB exhibition, which, like the setting, can be visited for a few weeks after registration. And of course we want to pass on this knowledge we gained and the solutions to the rest of the industry.
