Client and event overview
Thousands of festival-goers. Multiple stages. Three days of music, comedy and entertainment. Behind it all, plenty of people need to get exactly where they’re supposed to be. Our accreditation and festival staffing team headed to Sheffield to support Tramlines Festival, one of the city's biggest annual events. Held at Hillsborough Park, Tramlines has grown from its Sheffield city-centre beginnings into a major three-day festival.
Getting the Right People Through the Right Gates
At a festival, accreditation is about much more than handing someone a wristband.
Artists, contractors, crew, suppliers and other accredited personnel all need the correct access to keep a huge live event moving behind the scenes.
Our team supported the accreditation and access operation, helping ensure people arriving at site could get where they needed to be efficiently.
That requires accuracy, clear communication and an understanding of how festival sites fundamentally work.
Festival Staffing That Understands Operations
Great festival staffing is often most noticeable when something goes wrong.
That's why we select people who can understand an operational brief, communicate confidently and know when something needs escalating.
Accreditation teams are often an important first point of contact, meaning a friendly welcome needs to sit alongside thorough processes.
And while festival-goers are focused on who's playing next, our teams are focused on helping everything behind the scenes keep moving.
From large-scale festivals to conferences and sporting events, Ethical Staffing provides experienced teams for accreditation, access and visitor-facing roles.
Because sometimes the smoothest operations are the ones attendees never even notice.
