In 2016, the authors published a paper on music festival fatalities between the years 1999 and 2014 (n=722). In this Special Report, they provide an update on fatalities reported at music festivals globally for the period 2016-2017 (n=201). Using a search strategy designed to capture grey literature and media reports of music festival fatalities, reports of the overall frequency and cause-of-death breakdown for publicly reported, festival-related deaths are recorded. This update shows an increase in the frequency of festival-related fatality reports during the new period, together with an increase in the number of deaths attributable to terror (n=60) and overdose/poisoning (n=41). Drawing conclusions about the cause of this increase is challenging given the growth in Internet use, online media reports, and number of music festivals occurring annually when compared with the previous reporting period. The authors re-emphasize the need for a uniform reporting standard and reliable epidemiological data for fatalities related to music festivals, mass gatherings, and special events.

2016年，作者发表了一篇关于1999年至2014年音乐节死亡事件的论文（n = 722）。在本特别报告中，他们提供了2016 - 2017年全球音乐节死亡事件的最新情况（n = 201）。采用旨在获取音乐节死亡事件灰色文献和媒体报道的检索策略，记录公开报道的与音乐节相关死亡的总体频率和死因分类报告。本次更新显示，在新的时期内，与音乐节相关的死亡报告频率有所增加，同时恐怖袭击导致的死亡人数（n = 60）和过量用药/中毒导致的死亡人数（n = 41）也有所增加。鉴于与上一报告期相比，互联网使用、在线媒体报道以及每年举办的音乐节数量都有所增长，要就此增长的原因得出结论具有挑战性。作者再次强调，对于与音乐节、大型集会和特殊活动相关的死亡事件，需要统一的报告标准和可靠的流行病学数据。图里斯SA、琼斯T、伦德A。音乐节死亡率：2016 - 2017年最新情况——用于病例发现的学术文献和灰色文献。院前灾难医学。2018；33(5):553 - 557。
