Guidelines for Managing Alcohol at Large Events (pdf 6MB)
Please note that in a previous print run of this document (with a print date of August 2010) there was an error on page 20. The last paragraph on the page should read:
"There should be a suitable and sufficient number of security
staff depending on the size and risk of the event. While there
are currently no standards set in New Zealand to determine this,
overseas ratios recommend one per 75 spectators in small venues
and one per 200 in large venues. This is only a guide and does
not take into consideration the type or risk of the event."
