Rock for People 2026 was a five-day deployment for Bravion in cooperation with Cechymen. With roughly 70 thousand visitors, the festival is so far the largest event Bravion has taken part in securing. The team was assigned its own sector and managed traffic along the site perimeter within the airfield, including vehicle departures at night.
The team had its own sector for five days and supervised traffic around the airport perimeter. Staff reported current conditions through the procedure agreed with Čechymen.
At night, traffic flow was reversed for departures. Routes previously used to enter the site were used for vehicles leaving it. The team watched for wrong-way traffic and directed drivers according to conditions in the sector.
The team also monitored the airfield to prevent festival visitors entering restricted areas. Supervision covered both vehicle movement and the boundary between festival areas and the airfield.
Deployment also took place in rainy weather. This increased demands for orientation in space, patient communication and maintaining the set mode during the entire service.

Work in own sector
Own sector meant a clearly defined part of the service. The team concentrated on its section, followed the agreed procedure and handed over situations according to the operational needs of cooperation with Cechymen.
Traffic along the site perimeter within the airfield required continuous supervision. For night-time departures, the team worked with reversed traffic flow, watched for wrong-way traffic and directed vehicles so that drivers could understand the route.
The same sector also included the supervision of the airport area. The aim was to prevent the festival visitor from entering the defined part outside the festival operations. In rainy weather, it was important to keep the regimen consistent throughout the deployment.
Operational evaluation
Over five days, Bravion staff worked hundreds of hours in their assigned sector, including during rain and visitors’ night-time departures.
