Met Police Launches Huge Crackdown to Keep Women and Girls Safe at Concerts
- On June 5, the Metropolitan Police launched the V100 initiative with patrols at Beyoncé's concert at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to improve safety.
- The initiative began due to a rise in major music events this year, including 51 concerts in London, a number more than double last year.
- The V100 initiative uses data analytics to target high-risk sexual offenders, while over 5,000 officer shifts—including specialized patrols focused on violence against women and girls—are being assigned to major venues like Wembley and Emirates Stadium.

- The operation targets violence against women and girls, aiming to protect victims, ensure convictions, and allow millions of attendees, mostly young women and girls, to enjoy concerts without fear.
