Max HeyraudDublin’s Tengu has been named “Soundest Venue” by Safe Gigs Ireland, following a public call for nominations on social media. The venue was recognised for its strong commitment to fostering a safe, inclusive, and enjoyable atmosphere.
Yamamori Tengu has been awarded the title of ‘Soundest Venue’ by Safe Gigs Ireland. The award, presented two weeks ago, celebrates the venue’s commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and enjoyable environment for all attendees. The recognition comes as part of Safe Gigs Ireland’s initiative to make nightlife and gigs across the country safer and more inclusive by promoting zero-tolerance policies towards harassment and violence.
Safe Gigs Ireland launched a public call on their social media platforms earlier this year, encouraging the public to nominate venues that excel in creating welcoming and secure spaces for everyone. The response overwhelmingly pointed to Tengu, praised for its dedication to safety and inclusivity.
Emma (Booker/Manager) “It is pretty mad that the practices we have in place are not the industry standard in Ireland. When these club policies were first introduced punters were so receptive. Now most of the time the crowd just look after one another. If there is an issue of any kind it is dealt with immediately. I am so proud of the team we have, their hard work and dedication really shine through. I hope that more venues decide to invest in programs like these.”
Dola (Safe Gigs) “We are delighted to present the Safegigs Inaugural Award, for the Soundest Venue in Ireland 2024 to Yamamori Tengu. Nominated for the award through a public call out, Tengu stood out among the nominees for its ethos and practical implementation of measures to place the safety and welfare of its patrons at the core of its events.”
