Pro-Nite Pressure Points

Cultural fest nights with headline musicians attract the largest, most energetic crowds of the entire college year. Without rigorous protocols, gate crashes and security scrambles occur:

1. Strict Cutoff Timings Set a firm gate closing time (e.g., 7:30 PM for an 8:00 PM artist entrance) and communicate it prominently on the digital pass.

2. Tamper-Evident Wristbands Wristbands should only be attached *after* the digital QR ticket is scanned. Never hand loose wristbands to students in advance.

3. Emergency Evacuation Corridors Maintain wide, unblocked exits on both sides of the main field with dedicated security personnel armed with megaphones and first-aid kits.
