Abstract

For future event success, event management students must understand health and safety, and manage risks through strategic proactive measures including risk assessment and adhering to legal frameworks. This chapter offers a series of music festival case studies that are used to support the health and safety related lecture content and experiential seminar activities for second-year undergraduate events management students. Event management theory framing the lecture content is included, as well as a discussion of pedagogical theories relating to engagement and inclusivity underpinning the seminar activities. Teaching notes outlining the practical delivery of the health and safety lessons support this chapter.
