NIKOS – Landesfest

Crisis Communication for the 2028 Sachsen-Anhalt Day in Aschersleben

autonomous reliable cost-effective

NIKOS is not a conventional PA system, but a radio-based public address, alarm and control system for large events, construction sites and crisis situations, which you can rent by the day through certified partners and either integrate into your PA or use on its own.

Challenge

Warnings reach visitors without mobile networks

At the 2028 Sachsen-Anhalt Day in Aschersleben, the high number of visitors, noise and limited mobile network availability make crisis communication particularly challenging. Warnings and instructions must reach visitors in different event areas clearly and simultaneously. High network usage and loud stage sound increase the risk that important information will not reach all visitors in time.

Solution

One unified solution for everyday use and emergencies

NIKOS combines announcements, alerting, visitor information and control in a single, network-independent platform. NIKOS [dispatcher]² centrally controls individual announcement locations, specific areas or the entire site. This reduces the need for separate control units, additional communication channels and staff to coordinate distributed announcement locations.

FAQ

Information for planners and organisers

Does NIKOS adhere to the applicable standards for announcements?+
Yes. The basis is DIN EN 50849 for electroacoustic emergency warning systems, whose requirements NIKOS fully meets. Developed specifically for safety-relevant announcement and alerting applications, NIKOS is technically designed for everyday use as well as for emergency situations. For ELA systems, DIN EN 50849 forms the relevant framework. Because NIKOS — unlike mobile network-based systems — does not depend on an external network, immediate usability is guaranteed at all times, meaning the standard is fully met. Other safety-related standards such as DIN EN 54, DIN VDE 0833-4 and DIN 14675 (voice alarm systems) concern a different field of use and functional scope and are not relevant for the approval of NIKOS. Since its market launch in 2017, NIKOS has been the leading public address system for temporary and mobile applications, used successfully at some of the largest open-air events in Europe. Official acceptance is carried out on a project-specific basis.
Can NIKOS be installed at short notice for the 2028 Sachsen-Anhalt Day in Aschersleben?+
Yes, NIKOS was specifically developed for flexible outdoor applications without fixed infrastructure. The modules can be mounted on various structures, such as streetlights, stages, stalls or trees, by one or two people within just a few minutes and configured individually. A standard Schuko power outlet is sufficient for continuous operation.
How do crisis announcements remain intelligible at the 2028 Sachsen-Anhalt Day despite loud stage music?+
Crisis announcements remain intelligible when connected sound systems are interrupted for the duration of an announcement. NIKOS [audio]² reduces the background noise level and significantly improves the intelligibility of important instructions. This ensures that warnings and instructions reach visitors even while the stage programme is running.
Can NIKOS be integrated into the existing sound system at the 2028 Sachsen-Anhalt Day?+
Yes, NIKOS can be integrated into existing PA equipment via NIKOS [XLR]². This allows existing sound distribution paths to be used for announcements without having to set up a completely separate announcement system.
Where can a crisis communication system for the 2028 Sachsen-Anhalt Day in Aschersleben be rented?+
