Free earplugs are made available when needed, protecting visitors and staff from hearing damage.
Free earplugs are made available to visitors at events with elevated sound levels, such as concerts, club nights and other amplified music programmes. The earplugs are placed within easy reach at clearly visible points in the venue, so anyone can pick up a pair without having to ask, queue or pay. The provision is part of a broader prevention approach, in which event organisers are also informed about legal sound limits and their responsibilities toward both audiences and staff.
Sustainability added value: Hearing damage caused by exposure to loud music is irreversible and increasingly common, especially among younger audiences. By making protection effortless and free, the venue removes the financial and practical thresholds, normalises the use of earplugs at loud events, and actively safeguards the long-term health of visitors and staff alike.
