I am working on a couple of articles right now #Eventprofs and would love your input. F&B – Did you improve your F&B options at your event this year?Or do you have plans to enhance F&B in 2027? Perhaps, you worked with your concessions and traders in a slightly different, or implemented new processes? I'd love to know what you're doing to make your bars more efficient and your catering even more varied and also affordable. Let me know. Trackway – Ground protection. It's a glamorous topic and after this summer's heatwave, you may even question its use. But don't let scorching temperatures think you don't need it. I'm keen to hear how you used trackway in 2026, your plans for ground protection next year, and I'd love to hear about new products. Message me Security – From new security plans to Martyn's Law. I want to hear your thoughts, the challenges you faced on-site this summer, and how you plan to make your events safer in 2027. Don't be scared to talk about lessons learned this year and how you tackled them. Talk to me about security plans, trends, patterns of behaviour... I'm all ears. As always, tag someone below, drop me a message, or email [email redacted] #JournoRequest #EventSecurity #EventCatering #EventOperations

The upcoming winter edition of StandOut will feature a review of both events so be sure to get in touch if you’d like to feature in our next issue. Which, by the way, is another packed one.
