The warning comes ahead of next month’s big events.
According to numerous reports, sports stadiums, music stadiums, and nightclubs have been placed on high alert amid fears of potential ISIS attacks.
June will see the European Football Championships take place in France and Glastonbury, held in Somerset, England is also on the calendar.
Speaking to The Sunday Times, Neil Basu, deputy assistant commissioner of the Metropolitan police, said that public attractions such as the aforementioned events are “right at the top of the agenda”.
According to The Telegraph, Mr. Basu gave this warning while speaking at an anti-terrorism briefing in Wembley Stadium.
It’s thought that numerous executives from music companies and people holding high-profile positions within football clubs attended.
The assistant commissioner, who is head of protective security, said that while there haven’t been any specific threats made, festivals and stadiums are regarded as “vulnerable”.
Nightclubs are also said to be at risk after the attack in the Bataclan in Paris last November, which killed 89 people.
