Security for events and leisure venues

Event security planned before the first ticket is scanned

Concerts, sporting fixtures, festivals and corporate functions each have their own risks, and most of the work happens before the gates open. We prepare a staffing plan from the event risk assessment: how many door supervisors, stewards and response officers are needed, where the pinch points are at ingress and egress, how crowd density will be monitored and how incidents will be communicated.

On the day, SIA-licensed door supervisors verify tickets, manage queues and carry out searches in line with the event conditions, while response teams deal with medical incidents, ejections and lost property. Everyone works to a single radio protocol and a control point staffed by a supervisor.

Typical event cover

• Door supervisors for ticket verification, searches and entry management.
• Crowd management including pit-crew teams and density monitoring at the front of stage.
• Stewarding, way-finding and customer-service roles for family and corporate events.
• Overnight site security for multi-day events, build and break periods.
• Licensing support: documentation for the premises licence and the safety advisory group.

We cover one-off functions as readily as full seasons, and can scale the team up for large fixtures.
