This follows a similar situation that occurred a few days ago when a massive sale at A&S Apparel resulted in a stampede outside the store.

Effective mass crowd management is crucial to prevent such incidents from happening. On the other hand, attendees also have a role in maintaining order and ensuring their safety and that of others around them.
Prevention
Preventing horrible incidents like these requires precise planning. On top of that, the hosts should ensure there is adequate security. Preventing security failures at large events requires careful planning. Brands need to invest in expert crowd management professionals who can assess risks and implement strategies to keep everyone safe. This includes setting up proper barriers and organizing orderly entry and exit points. Plus, if necessary, they should have security personnel on hand to manage the situation.
Customers need honesty – always
Next, communication is key in matters like these. Brands should provide honest information about the anticipated attendees. This helps manage expectations and prevents overcrowding.
Though the aim is always to attract such massive crowds, for both publicity and sales purposes, customer safety should be prioritized. Brands and event hosts should learn from recent incidents and reconsider their location choices, making them more fitting and safe.
