Modelling – Using a spreadsheet

The Subject

Organising a concert – I am going to use a spreadsheet to create a working model for the organisation of a rock concert. This concert will be called “Shredfest”. It will be open to anyone who is able to get a ticket. Backstage passes are not sold. Children under 13 will need to be accompanied by an adult. It is not recommended that children under the age of 8 attend due to excessive noise and unruly behaviour!

  • Number of seats.

  • Catering.
  • Fee of the bands.
  • Cleaners.
  • Sound team.
  • Manufacture of the stage.
