A stadium's security story is not only the turnstiles on match day. Year-round, it is the vendors, contractors, media, officials and event crew who need accredited access to pitches, production areas, hospitality suites and plant rooms — often in large, time-boxed waves.
Two very different loads
- Event days — large volumes of accredited staff, vendors and media arriving in a short window.
- Between events — a steady flow of maintenance and fit-out contractors.
Why accreditation needs structure
Access zones at a venue are strict — a catering vendor should not reach the players' tunnel, and a contractor for the roof should not wander hospitality. Managing that with paper lists and lanyards alone invites tailgating and mistakes exactly when the venue is busiest.
What good looks like
- Pre-registration with QR passes so event-day waves become quick scans.
- Access scope by zone, clear on the badge.
- Restricted Visitor screening to flag barred individuals — see blocking barred individuals.
- A complete, exportable log across every gate and area.
