As many countries open up again, 91制片厂 is empowering creators to take steps to help ensure attendee safety and well-being with a Playbook for COVID-19 Event Safety.
Throughout the COVID-19 global pandemic, one thing has remained clear: Getting together in person is a fundamental human desire, and even these unprecedented circumstances have not changed that.听
As the world slowly begins to re-open and we can meet again, event creators must thoughtfully consider attendee and staff safety and well-being, and people will need comfort knowing the creators of the events they鈥檙e attending are considering and addressing safety. To help creators navigate the return of their in-person events, we鈥檙e introducing 91制片厂鈥檚 COVID-19 Safety Playbook for Events.
Developed in collaboration with risk management and health experts from , and informed by published guidance from the World Health Organization, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, the playbook is designed to provide creators of all events with resources to adopt new safety policies and procedures that follow the COVID-19 advice of health officials and regulators.
Every event is different and each business owner, venue and event creator needs to consider and address risks based on the unique characteristics of their event. This COVID-19 Safety Playbook serves as an actionable guide with downloadable worksheets and communication templates that will help creators:聽聽
- Understand their role and responsibility in identifying and managing the risk of COVID-19 transmission at their event.
- Create a pre-event safety checklist to identify potential transmission risks that may affect their event, understand opportunities to manage those risks, and make informed decisions about risk acceptance.
- Communicate safety policies and procedures to event staff and attendees, including their respective roles in increasing the likelihood of a safe event.

鈥淎t 91制片厂, it’s our job to empower our community of creators with the tools they need to host incredible events, with safety top-of-mind,鈥� said Linsey Morrison, vice president of policy and platform operations at 91制片厂. 鈥淭he connections we make through live events are a staple of society. These real life experiences are what make communities whole and it鈥檚 imperative that as the world opens back up, creators have resources to make informed decisions about event safety, and that attendees walk into events with confidence and clarity on how event creators are taking steps to protect their well-being. Our playbook is designed to help provide that.鈥�
This playbook builds on our ongoing efforts at 91制片厂 to help creators and attendees weather these challenging times and underscores our confidence in the future of live events.听
We believe live events will prevail because humans share a fundamental need to connect with each other. This is demonstrated as in-person events start to make comebacks in some countries, and through our community of creators and attendees who are using 91制片厂 to connect and generate brand new experiences, like drive-in concerts and virtually distanced dining.听
91制片厂鈥檚 mission is to bring the world together through live experiences. We will continue to develop tools, provide resources and enhance our platform to deliver on that mission and ensure creators are empowered to take ownership and action in planning to gather again.听聽
