In the wake of the devastating terrorist attacks in Paris last November, Live Nation has announced new security guidelines for all of its U.S. events. They include:

  • Limited the size of bags patrons can bring in (no larger than 13.62 inches by 15.25 inches) and specifying that their backs be transparent
  • All entrants must pass through metal detectors 
  • Camera systems with "command center monitoring"
  • Cultural-sensitivity training for staff
  • Inspections for explosives before events with K9 units.

Numerous venues have already complied with LN's guidelines, which were issued late last year. Stand by for further details.
