First Option is heading to The Showman’s Show on 21–22 October, bringing more than 20 years of event safety experience (and a little bit of fun).
As the largest, most experienced safety consultancy to the media, entertainment and events industries, we support events and productions around the world with one simple belief: creativity shouldn’t be compromised by safety, it should be enabled by it.
People do their best work when they feel safe, and creativity should never be limited by fear. For more than 20 years, First Option has partnered with global clients to bring bold and creative visions to life safely and successfully.
Our experience spans everything from the Olympics and motorsports to film premieres, technology conferences, high-profile weddings and experiential activations. Whatever the scale or complexity, our approach is proactive and collaborative. We work alongside clients to find practical solutions that advance their goals rather than simply telling them what they can’t do.
Our consultants are seasoned professionals with real-world backgrounds in event production. That expertise translates into support throughout the event lifecycle, from Event Health & Safety Planning and onsite live event support to systems and processes. Services include Event Safety Management Plans, risk and fire risk assessments, crowd safety, construction phase and extreme weather plans, emergency planning, local authority liaison, safety training, crisis management, pyrotechnics and special effects support, inspections, event safety reports and bespoke accident and incident reporting systems.
And when clients need ongoing expertise, we can embed Health & Safety Consultants directly into teams to become a central point of contact and a key voice in the safety culture.
Safety support at your fingertips
Our support doesn’t stop with consultancy. First Option also provides a growing range of online tools and resources designed to make good event safety easier to put into practice.
At The Showman’s Show, visitors can discover tools including the Event Risk Assessment Builder, Event Risk Assist, Knowledgebase and SCOUT, alongside finding out how our consultants can support individual events.
