As a specialist in event security, Alpha Security is a leading provider of professional event security for large-scale operations. Our event security guards don't just stand at entrances; they prevent problems, manage risks, and provide security to protect everyone throughout the event.

You can reach out to us at the Security Management Team via phone, email, or complete our online quote for security form. After we discuss your event security needs, the venue you will use, the number of attendees you expect, the event date and time, and any other security specifics, we will provide you with a detailed proposal outlining our Event Security Solution, Deployment Plan, and Pricing. Once you approve this proposal, we will assign a Dedicated Security Coordinator to manage your Event Security Plan from initial planning through the event and to send you a Post-Event Report afterwards. Our operating model is designed to ensure your event security is handled effectively, allowing you to focus on managing your event without stress. We offer all of our security services customised to fit your individual needs and budget.
Event organisers receive access to our security management platform showing real-time locations of all security personnel (GPS tracking), deployment schedules, incident reporting, and communication tools. All event security guards carry body-worn cameras, encrypted radio systems, and mobile reporting devices. This reporting and footage are included in your event documentation, allowing for full operational transparency; enabling your events' crowd management teams to effectively coordinate and provide instant incident response capabilities as well as ensure a smooth-running event with multiple zones or stages. This gives clients unprecedented operational visibility through the UK's leading security technology provider.
Our 24/7 Security Operations Centre will deploy Event Security on behalf of clients, typically within 24 - 48 hours for most areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, for existing clients, we have a 'standby' team available to undertake same-day callouts if required. We would, however, encourage event security bookings to be made as early as possible to allow us to allocate our best experienced event security personnel, develop an effective, bespoke security plan for your event, and complete the necessary site surveys and risk assessments. Booking your event security early ensures the most effective service for your needs and allows time to deliver bespoke security training for each member of your security team. As part of our national network of security professionals, this will enable us to deploy event security rapidly across all regions of the UK.
We have an all-in-one security and stewarding service for all events throughout the UK.

Our security staff work seamlessly together, with event security guards handling security incidents whilst event stewards focus on positive attendee experiences. This integrated approach to event security in the UK ensures your event is a success by combining security to protect attendees with excellent customer service.
