Event Security & Crowd Controllers
Licensed event officers on festival fences and outdoor programs, and crowd controllers on licensed venue doors — two different jobs, one team.
Event security and crowd control are related and they are not the same brief. A festival has a fence, a production office and a run sheet. A hotel or club has a door, RSA and a floor. ANSIC staffs both with our own licensed officers.
Outdoor programs — Cooly Rocks On, Big Pineapple, Ipswich Show, Abbey Medieval Festival and the Moreton Bay events — sit on event security and festival event security. Licensed hotels, clubs, function rooms and venue doors sit on crowd control.

Who provides this service?
ANSIC deploys our own event and crowd officers. They hold the security licence the job requires in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria — including the crowd-controller function where the brief needs it — plus RSA where alcohol is served, and advanced first aid and CPR. They are well presented, with the verbal skills a gate, a floor or a festival fence actually needs. We do not use unrequested contractors.
Why it is needed
A camera cannot hold a queue or refuse service. Licensed officers give an immediate response where a delay would put patrons or staff at further risk. Without that presence, organisers and venue operators run the risk of a night or a program turning chaotic.
Two briefs, one licensed team
Festival and outdoor programs sit on event security and festival event security. Licensed venues, hotels, clubs and floors sit on crowd control.
Crowd control
Licensed venues, hotels, clubs and floors. RSA, entry and incident management.
Find out moreHow we track and report
Festival and outdoor programs are rostered in 
Guardhouse. Officers clock in on a GPS time clock inside the site geofence. Incidents can carry time-stamped photos, and clock-ins, scans and incidents sit on the occurrence log. Daily licence checks run across Australian states, including Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. The optional customer portal can show a client the schedule, licence status and the log.
Where a program includes a licensed venue, hotel or club door, officers sign on through 
Security Registers — mobile QR sign-on and Office of Fair Trading licence checks, including the crowd-controller component.
