Where? Music festivals in Europe (at least 5 countries in familiar with) build barricades to prevent surges at festivals. This shows there's a barricade part

  Outside lands in SF. The rap shows always get the craziest and I will say after reading more about crowd crushing and crowd collapses I’ll be staying further back from now on. Truly one of those situations where I was thinking “huh, interesting I chose to put myself in this situation after hearing about astroworld”. I think I saw barricades like that at Coachella, definitely a good way to limit this.

  To be precise, these are fences which are too big to push over by oneself, but will move when pushed on by hundreds of people. That relieves any crowd pressure, and the movement of the baraccade is a signal to organisers that they have screwed up and need to prevent more people entering that area.
