Event & Crowd

Events have a different rhythm — short ramp, peak intensity, fast tear-down. We staff event security with a flexible mix of uniformed crowd-management officers, plain-clothes leads, and dispatch overflow for unplanned incidents. Crowd flow, gate control, ID verification, and BC liquor compliance all in scope.
