I don't agree. If the Horniman intend for events to have 10000 people then their licence needs to reflect that number, not 14999. Its a huge bandwidth to jump. This sounds all very haphazard and not indicative of good planning or forecasting or in fact control over numbers. I think events projected at 10000 need to be ticketed at least at the gate where numbers can be counted and a balance made with the local community. 10000 people sounds like a lot to me- roughly the size of the Jerk cookout in 2008 which I attended and was pretty packed. You still wouldn't have wanted that size of event every weekend. I would support up to 10000 but would still want to quiz the Horniman further on its plans which I think are still pretty ott.
