Major Events & Venues – From Gut Feeling to Simulation-Based Planning
© PTV Group
About the webinar
This webinar focuses on how pedestrian and traffic simulation supports capacity planning across the full spectator journey – from arrivals and security to circulation and large-scale egress under both normal and critical conditions. The session features
- Michael Tschanz, sharing insights from simulation in complex venue environments
- Dr. Matthias Pfriem, Senior Product Manager for PTV Vissim, demonstrating how Viswalk enables detailed analysis of pedestrian and traffic interactions; and
- Frida Aspnäs, transport consultant at WSP, presenting a real-world case from Stockholm, where simulations of 45,000 visitors informed design and operational decisions for a major arena district.
Beyond gut feeling: Plan safe, seamless major events
PTV’s microsimulation tools PTV Vissim and PTV Viswalk empower cities, consultants, and event organizers to develop and approve statutory-compliant event mobility plans by predicting and evidencing traffic and pedestrian safety outcomes before the event takes place.
