Events that benefit from security McKenzie Arnold Security UK Ltd.

If you are uncertain whether you need to recruit an event security service, our useful guide will point you in the right direction.

There are always unforeseen variables and unknown risks at any event. Uncle Henry might get unruly at the wedding, a riot might break out at a product launch, or a VIP could get mobbed. Activists and protesters, antisocial behaviour or just a general sense of disorder in the queue or the car park - if you’re not sure your event needs event security, here are some examples of situations where event security can help.?

Entertainment

• Security for live television shows
• International album launches
• High profile theatre productions
• Controversial product launches

Entertainment venues such as television studios often host live shows, from Top of the Pops to award ceremonies, featuring high profile celebrities.
Apart from obvious crowd control, some entertainment events can cause controversy. The theatre production of The Jerry Springer Show provoked religious protests across the UK. Even book launches can be a minefield, as witnessed by Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses.

Event security in such venues could include static overnight security, audience stewarding and crowd control, access control, security cover within the studio for the live performances and security for VIPs and special guests.

Sporting events

Big sporting events, such as the British Motorbike Grand Prix, can attract up to 13,000 campers.

Event security for such a venue could include crowd and access control, the searching of campers and their vehicles, car park management, the processing and collecting of tickets and campsite patrols.

PR events

Advertising campaigns often feature high-profile product launches, and high-profile product launches often feature high-profile celebrities.

Event security can offer licensing research, audience queuing and stewarding/crowd control, autograph signing area administration and security of VIPs and special guests.

VIP protection

If it’s a film award ceremony, or a press junket, VIPs and celebrities demand more security measures.

Event security can provide full close protection and residential security teams for VIPs and stars as well a venue based event security team.

Corporate parties

If your company are hosting a party, whether it’s a 500-people outdoor garden party or small indoor function, security can be an issue.

This is often the case if a company deals with controversial products that could provoke demonstrators or political protesters, from environmentalists to anti-capitalists. Also, many parties feature VIPs or even celebrities.

Experts in event security can free you up to focus on your business rather than leave you to worry about whether your event will run smoothly, or what security breaches might occur.
