Event Security Dublin: how we work
Dublin hosts events of every size, from private parties in hotels to conferences, sporting fixtures, festivals and concerts. Each needs security planned around the venue, the audience and the programme, and every person carrying out security work at an event must hold a PSA licence for event security.
We start with the event plan and the venue. We look at entrances and exits, queues, ticket and wristband checks, bag searches, stage and backstage areas, bars, and how people will leave at the end. From that we agree the number of security staff, where each one is positioned and what they do, and how we work with your stewards, venue staff and medical team.
Under the PSA's event security standard, the minimum is generally one security staff member for every 250 people in seated areas and one for every 100 elsewhere, unless a risk assessment justifies something different. Stewards, who are not licensed, can help with directions and tickets but cannot search people, refuse entry or remove anyone, so they do not count towards those numbers.
On the day, our team manages access, searches, crowd flow and incidents, and stays in contact with you throughout. Afterwards you receive a report of anything that happened.
