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.
  • Ben Russell, Deputy Assistant Commissioner, explained that their strategy focuses on using data to pinpoint the men who present the greatest threat to women and girls in London and responding with carefully targeted interventions.
  • 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.
