On December 8, Post Malone, a Grammy-nominated musician and international celebrity, traveled to Guwahati for his first concert in Assam and the Northeast.
One of the largest international music events ever held in the state, the eagerly anticipated concert in Khanapara is expected to attract a sizable crowd of 20,000 to 22,000 people.
The local administration and police have implemented stringent traffic and security measures to control the increase in visitors and guarantee public safety.
Several sections leading to Khanapara have been closed to commercial vehicles starting at 5 PM. Parking is strictly forbidden on both sides of the National Highway and within six miles of the venue.
There are fifteen authorized public parking spaces across the region, with the Khanapara Veterinary College grounds serving as the main parking lot. In order to maintain peace and order and regulate traffic, more than 1,300 police officers have been assigned.
With two fire engines, one rescue van, and thirty fire marshals stationed close to the performance grounds, fire and emergency services will continue to be on high alert.
Health City Hospital will oversee a full medical setup, including ambulances, ICU support, a Mother Tent, and specialized first-aid camps, while the Public Health Department has updated first-aid facilities with more personnel and equipment.
The event will be monitored in real time by a central Venue Operations Center with more than 100 CCTV cameras, uniting all agencies under a single, coordinated system.
In cooperation with Momentum India, a company renowned for overseeing high-density international events, the safety blueprint was created.
To guarantee a seamless and secure experience, officials have asked concertgoers to comply with on-site personnel and heed any recommendations.
The partnership's first significant milestone is Post Malone's exclusive Guwahati concert, which strengthens the live entertainment ecosystem in the area and opens the way for more national and international acts.
