Health and Safety
In a venue that frequently has a lot of live music, there will be a lot of wires around, they must all be taped down using white tape, this is so that people can see them and to prevent anyone tripping over them. Any venue must have fire exits with at least two with disabled access.
The number of fire exits a venue has determines it’s capacity, so they are generally designed to incorporate a lot of fire exits. Of course there is a limit to any venues capacity so they must employ bouncers to guard the doors once it is full, and also to turn away any unsuitable customers e.g. if they are underage.
