How to keep participants cool at outdoor events
Since the opening rain-soaked ceremony in Paris of the 2024 Olympic Games, the weather has turned quickly into a heatwave. Temperatures have soared above 35 degrees Celsius placing competitors and spectators at risk from heat exhaustion and/or heat stress.
Thankfully, cooling mist systems and misting fans situated at designated points across Paris offer relief from the heat and have been welcomed by competitors, spectators and visitors alike.
During the summer months it is vital to ensure the wellbeing of those attending sporting events and festivals. Long term weather forecasts here in Australia show warmer days and nights are likely for August to October with a high chance of the maximum median temperature being exceeded throughout the following months.
Renowned for our expertise in innovative misting systems, CoolMist can help in addressing potential heat-related challenges. To assist with these issues effectively, CoolMist misting systems offer invaluable benefits.
Athlete Comfort
At sporting events, misting fans and/or mist systems are strategically positioned to maximise athlete comfort. The cooling mist systems are designed to refresh and help regulate body temperature.
Enhance Spectator and Guests Experience
Misting systems can be placed in designated areas at sporting and festival events so that guests can enjoy their experience in comfort without being hampered by the heat.
How it works
A high-pressure mist system is one of the most effective and efficient methods of cooling outdoor spaces. CoolMist misting systems which operate at 1,000 psi, create micron-sized droplets that rapidly evaporate, remove heat from the air, cooling the surrounding area. Even days with temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius are comfortable thanks to the dry fog created by the cooling mist system, which can drop the temperature by up to 15 degrees Celsius. This keeps event venues cool, safe and enjoyable.
Misting fans and mist systems come in a variety of sizes and designs and can be tailored to your specific requirements. Cooling wall and ceiling misting fans, high pressure static line mist systems, mist poles and other misting structures, all provide that much needed relief from the heat no matter how hot it gets!
Mist systems can also be tailored to the sporting arena and/or festival venue to give it visual impact and that "WOW Factor" as well as the much-needed cool relief on hot summer days. With the installation of a misting system, you can create cool zones at your Sporting or Festival Event.
