Willsecure — You’re in safe hands.

Willsecure works as part of your event delivery team. Our officers arrive briefed, trained, and deployed to defined roles. We maintain clear communication with event control, monitor developing issues, and intervene early to prevent escalation.

We have extensive experience running large-scale events, regularly providing 100+ staff per day. This includes structured planning, clear supervision, and consistent standards across all positions, ensuring reliable performance throughout the event.

Our officers apply authority appropriately, maintaining safety and compliance while supporting the overall event experience.

With Willsecure, you get a security team focused on planning, coordination, and effective on-site delivery.

What this looks like on site

    • Professional, approachable officers matched to your crowd and brand

    • Calm, effective authority at peak pressure points

    • Clearly defined roles, zones, and escalation procedures

    • Prevention-first approach with decisive action when needed

    • Structured reporting and handovers to ensure nothing is missed

Proven festival security since 2011

WillSecure has delivered festival and event security since 2011, with some officers bringing over 20 years of hands-on festival experience.

Festivals don’t reward theory. They reward judgement, awareness, and teams who know what good looks like when the weather turns, queues surge, or radios light up.

 

Every festival is unique, with its own rhythm, crowd profile, layout, and pressure points. At Willsecure, we match experienced event security professionals to each role, brief them thoroughly, position them strategically, and manage them throughout the event. We maintain clear communication with organisers, producers, emergency services, and authorities to ensure a safe, coordinated environment. The result is security that runs smoothly, keeps attendees safe, and allows your team to focus on delivering an exceptional experience.

What we provide

From early site build through live days, late nights, and final breakdown, we provide continuous, structured security support aligned to your event plan. We can support events requiring 100+ officers per day across 24-hour operations, with consistent standards applied across every shift and zone.

Full site coverage

A visible, structured presence across the entire site, delivered with the right tone for your audience.

We cover

  • Entry and exit gates

  • Ticket and wristband verification

  • Bag searches and prohibited item screening

  • Perimeter and fence line checks

  • VIP, backstage, and production access

  • Staff and contractor access control

  • Deliveries and vehicle movements where required

Outcome
A secure site that remains welcoming, with smoother entry points and controlled access throughout the day.

Crowd and traffic management

Crowd safety is about flow, clarity, and calm authority. The aim is simple: keep people moving safely and keep the atmosphere positive.

We support

  • Traffic flow coordination and vehicle routing

  • Car park supervision and pedestrian safety

  • Queue management at entrances, bars, toilets, and stages

  • Crowd monitoring and early intervention at pinch points

Outcome
Reduced congestion, fewer flashpoints, and safer movement during peak periods.

Patrols and rapid response

A strong plan is only effective if issues are identified between the hotspots.

We deliver

  • Round-the-clock foot patrols and zone checks

  • Rapid mobile response to urgent calls

  • Monitoring of remote or higher-risk areas

  • Fast, structured incident escalation and recording

Outcome
Issues spotted early, dealt with quickly, and documented clearly.

Campsite and public area safety

Camping zones and public areas require a different approach, particularly late at night. We treat welfare as a priority, not an afterthought.

We support

  • Patrols across camping zones and public spaces

  • Welfare checks and safeguarding support

  • Lost child response and reunification

  • Assistance for vulnerable or distressed individuals

  • Clear handovers with welfare teams and event control

Outcome
A safer environment that feels supportive, not heavy-handed.

Conflict resolution and emergency
support

Our teams are trained to de-escalate early, communicate clearly, and respond professionally when incidents occur.

We work seamlessly alongside:

  • Event organisers and production teams

  • Event control and stewarding teams

  • Medical and welfare services

  • Emergency services where required

Outcome
Cleaner decision-making, faster resolution, and a controlled site under pressure.

Reliable communication, even with
poor signal

Festivals often suffer from limited mobile coverage. That’s why communications planning matters.

We provide robust radio systems and clear radio discipline so teams can coordinate effectively, escalate issues quickly, and keep event control informed in real time.

Outcome
Faster response, clearer handovers, and fewer operational surprises.

Control is the Key to Safe Events

Our approach to festival and event security is built on 24/7 operational control. Alongside our on-the-ground officers, a dedicated team monitors the event, tracks incidents, manages radios, coordinates responses, and communicates instantly with other departments. This ensures a safe, well-managed event from start to finish.

We focus on operational detail before gates even open:

This is how you protect the guest experience while keeping the site safe and compliant.
