The three day festival in Holland brought together 55,000 people to enjoy the festival experience with music from the likes of Arctic Monkeys, The Prodigy, Kaiser Chiefs and Snoop Dogg.
This year, Mojo Barriers' Gatekeeper was used for the first time at the festival as part of the entry and exit system for the main stage front audience pens. The Gatekeeper's turnstile system counted the number of people entering and leaving the enclosed pens immediately in front of the stage throughout the day to ensure the capacity didn't exceed 1,200 people at any one time.
Having previously worked on the festival since day one at Mojo Concerts, Cees Muurling has recently changed roles to become managing director of Mojo Barriers. "Crowd safety has always been top priority for the festival since day one and the festival benefits from the synergy between Mojo Concerts, LOC 7000 and Mojo Barriers as it provides a safe experimental field for the final stages of testing new products and systems in a controlled way before offering to other festivals and events," says Muurling.
Across the site, Mojo Barriers installed the barrier systems for all 11 stages and supplementary site structures, providing 750m of barrier, making it one of the largest festivals the company is involved with.
