With the UK attracting everything from world-leading music festivals like Glastonbury to diverse cultural celebrations, we secure events of all sizes, with custom plans available for:
But with the UK’s festival scene seeing north of £2 billion in revenue each year, and millions of people in attendance, comprehensive event security is crucial. Our approach evolves with the scale of your crowd and real-time guest safety needs.
Every festival needs proactive protection. Our specially trained festival security guards and event personnel manage entry flow and guest welfare. With ProFM, we provide crowd management from gate to stage with Welfare and Vulnerability Engagement (WAVE) trained officers, crucial for music festival security and events that involve alcohol.
We provided a comprehensive, multi-officer solution for the renowned Clitheroe Food Festival, delivering expert security professionals and supervisory staff, overnight cover during crucial set-up phases, and DS-licensed officers for areas with alcohol vendors.
Deter and detect threats with our NASDU-accredited and SIA-licensed canine security services, with dogs available for both deterrence (ideal for crime-hit areas) and detection (for detecting drugs, pyrotechnics and weapons).
Our solutions for hired surveillance are ideal for maximising coverage at large-scale festival grounds, open areas, and multiple stalls and stages. See everything with mobile CCTV towers, providing HD footage available on demand, augmented by AI for advanced threat detection, and completely solar powered to ensure you’re not siphoning vital resources on the day.
Essential for security at music festivals and those with special guests, close protection delivers the more personalised coverage aimed at keeping VIP and high-net-worth attendees safe among the crowds. From stageside protection to crowd management, and with personalised protective plans bespoke to your client, we deliver adaptive and reactive coverage designed for busy public events.
Of course, while a robust physical security presence goes a long way, the fundamentals can’t – and shouldn’t – be overlooked. Beyond manned presence, we offer barriers, fencing and lighting that’s been engineered for safety, flow and perimeter control, as well as crowd management infrastructure that’s built to ensure a safe and prosperous event.
With over two decades of expertise in event security, we’re capable of securing events of all types. Ranked in the top 1% of ACS-Approved Contractors for three consecutive years, we are true industry leaders. Rest assured - whatever the size or scope of your occasion, our SIA-licensed officers will be on hand to ensure the smooth and successful running of your event.

Yes. We can offer fully licensed Door Supervisors (DS professionals) for your festival, all of whom have specialist training in WAVE (Welfare and Vulnerability Engagement), drink spiking recognition, and basic first aid.
We have a comprehensive escalation procedure in place that’s designed to both provide our officers and your guests with complete peace of mind, and ensure that all incidents are dealt with properly. We’ll have multiple, trained supervisors across your site, as well as oversight from our National Events and Projects Manager and key players in our Operational Structure.

We offer comprehensive solutions, including strategically positioned personnel at the entrance to performance areas, close protection officers for both covert and overt protection, mobile CCTV towers, and temporary access controls for complete coverage.
Yes, we can. For larger-scale events, we conduct a comprehensive risk and security needs analysis, designed to alleviate the issues your site might present, as well as maximise your security coverage.
For bigger events (such as with our work at The Clitheroe Food Festival), we’ll also implement table-top planning sessions and an IEB (Incident and Emergency Board) to ensure that all risk factors are considered, managed and effectively mitigated.
We recommend having 2 security officers for every 100 – 150 guests, or 1 security officer for every 100 – 150 guests if you’re not planning to serve alcohol. This is dependent on the size and scope of your event, and we may recommend more security officers if you have a particularly large or challenging festival area.
