Every event, whether an intimate gathering or a large-scale festival, requires careful planning to ensure a safe and secure environment. In Vancouver, where world-class events like the Vancouver International Film Festival, Rogers Arena concerts, and the Celebration of Light draw massive crowds, event security plays a critical role in safeguarding attendees, staff, and performers.

At Cornerstone Security & Transport, we go beyond the traditional role of security guards by integrating cutting-edge security measures, real-time surveillance, and expert personnel to provide comprehensive event protection. From VIP protection services and crowd management strategies to emergency preparedness planning and perimeter security, we ensure your event runs smoothly while mitigating risks.

Why Event Security is Essential

Large gatherings come with inherent risks, including:

  • Unauthorized Access – Uninvited guests attempting to enter restricted areas
  • Theft & Vandalism – Opportunistic crimes targeting personal property and venue assets
  • Crowd Surges – Sudden movements leading to injuries or panic situations
  • Medical Emergencies – Unexpected health incidents requiring immediate response
  • Alcohol-Related Disturbances – Intoxicated individuals causing disruptions
  • Protest Disruptions & Cyber Threats – Security challenges that require strategic mitigation

With a proactive approach, our event security officers, crowd controllers, mobile patrol officers, and close protection officers ensure safety while maintaining a positive event experience for attendees.
