Marshals and Stewards Hire

When it comes to managing any event, whether it be a wedding right through to a flagship UK festival, Marshals and Stewards understand that the first priority always as to the safety of guests above all else.

Although no two events are the same, there are some event management principles that all event organisers must be aware of. Its crucial that you…

Assess Your Risks

This includes considering Evaluation planning, first aid, crowd control, access control and theft protection.

In addition to these, other questions to understand are…

• Where is your event taking place?
• Does your venue have any obvious security weaknesses?
• Will media be present? (whether permitted or not)
• Will controversial figures be in attendance?

How to help protect yourself

Make your marshals visible – this both prevents people from breaking the event rules, and allows guests to seek help easily.

Create checkpoints – The biggest deterrent to prevent guests bringing prohibited items into your venue is to have a checkpoint. Providing the other areas of the site are well protected, it also makes it impossible for people to gain entrance un-permitted.

Understand your venue – Make sure you have site visits prior with your security experts. Every venue had a weakness that needs preparation to secure. Communication plans should be considered during your site visit.

What do our Marshals do?

Their main objective is to ensure that your event runs smoothly. They are the best point of contact for people needing assistance at your event. Their other duties are completely up to you! Some tasks may include:

• Registering guests/crowds
• Ticket collection/Wrist band allocation
• Managing booths or stalls
• Managing car parks
• Directing crowds
• Helping with evacuations
• Collecting feedback

To summarise, our event marshals are the first to arrive and last to leave, ensuring you and the crowds are happy and safe. They are confident engaging with people and understanding your expectations of the event.
