The maximum number of attendees a venue can safely and legally accommodate, determined by fire codes, building permits, and safety regulations. Venue capacity includes all attendees, staff, vendors, and performers.
Exceeding venue capacity can result in safety hazards, legal penalties, and event cancellation. Accurately tracking capacity and implementing ticket limits ensures compliance and attendee safety.
Real-world examples of how organizers use Venue Capacity.
