Organizing a concert, festival or VIP party is not just about entertainment and a program. Security is an equally important element, which determines the overall impression of the participants and the success of the entire event. Professional event security requires a well-thought-out strategy, an experienced team and modern procedures.
Key elements of event security
Risk analysis before the event
Every event is different – a closed VIP party requires a different approach than a music festival for thousands. That’s why we conduct a detailed risk analysis at the beginning and design a tailor-made security plan.
Entrance and perimeter control
Careful checking of tickets, personal belongings and monitoring of the area minimizes the risk of incidents. Modern technologies such as metal detectors or camera systems increase the level of protection.
Visible and hidden protection
We combine uniformed security for a visible effect with civilian workers who discreetly monitor what is happening among visitors.
Coordination with organizers and IRS units
Close cooperation with the organizers, police and rescue services ensures a quick response to any situation.
Our practical experience
