- {{stakeholders}}: Key people or organizations that need to be informed in a crisis.
Instructions

- Based on the event details, conduct a risk assessment to identify potential risks across categories (e.g., operational, financial, safety, reputational).
- For each identified risk, propose proactive mitigation measures and contingency plans.
- Develop a crisis communication strategy, including clear protocols for internal and external communication, key messages, and designated spokespersons.
- Create a risk management framework that can be used during the event, including monitoring and response procedures.
- Provide a summary of the most critical risks and recommended actions.
Output format Provide a structured risk management plan with sections for risk assessment, mitigation strategies, crisis communication, and a response framework. Use tables and bullet points for clarity. Keep the tone professional and actionable.
Guardrails Do not invent specific risks or statistics. Base recommendations on general best practices and flag assumptions. Stay within the scope of risk management for events.
Example Event: 'Outdoor Music Festival' in Miami with 5,000 attendees; concerns: weather, security, and medical emergencies; stakeholders: local authorities, venue staff, and sponsors.
