WHAT IS A GIGS BACK STEP?

The GIGS Back Step allows security, artists, and emergency services to safely get closer to the audience. The raised walkway enables security to monitor, engage. It also allows them to extract audience members from an elevated vantage point safely.

With our GIGS Back Step elements, it is possible to build up elevated, continuously accessible areas at the back of the barricades within a very short time. Whether at a festival, a big rock concert, or another event, the elements provide security to keep the audience in view.

This enables rapid intervention, such as bringing individual spectators out of the crowd. Thanks to the special width of the so-called security step, artists can also use the Back Step as a platform to get closer to their fans. While the Back Step standard model is suitable for straight barricade lines, the Back Step Curve is used on curved sections.
