Protest / civil unrest

A crowd gathering that could block access or turn hostile.

What it looks like

  • A growing group at the entrance or roadway
  • Raised tension, chanting turning aggressive, attempts to push inside

Before — design it out

  • Know your alternate entrances and exits in advance
  • Coordinate with police on expected demonstrations
  • Plan a quiet VIP arrival route

During — what staff do

  • Shift arrivals/departures to a calmer entrance
  • Keep guests inside and calm; don't engage the crowd
  • Call police non-emergency early; 911 if it turns violent
Remember the spine. Notice → report quietly → let trained security assess. For immediate danger, call 911 first.
