Before you book

A few useful details.

How many check-in staff do I need?

Team size depends on arrival peaks, open entrances or desks, and the steps each guest completes. Include separate scanning, badge collection and guest assistance roles so we can review the workload.

Can staff use our ticketing platform?

Include the platform name and required tasks in your enquiry. Share any training needs and allow time for your event briefing and device checks.

Who provides scanners and passes?

You arrange the ticketing system, scanners or tablets, connectivity, guest lists, badges and wristbands. Confirm what is onsite and the setup tasks staff will cover.

Can I book multiple days or venues?

Yes. Send the roles, staff numbers and shift times for each date and venue so every part of the schedule can be included in the staffing brief.

Can staff assist VIP and delegate arrivals?

Yes. Specify guest categories, separate lists, accreditation, badge collection and reception duties. Include the organiser responsible for guest queries and entry exceptions.

Ticketing & check-in support for your event

  • Ticket scanning & entry support

    Keep your ticketed entry points organised with staff assigned to scanning, guest list checks and wristband distribution. Teams follow your event procedures and use the systems and equipment agreed in the booking brief.

    For festivals, sporting events and public programs, share the arrival peaks, gate locations and re-entry rules. Nominate an event contact to resolve ticket exceptions while staff continue assisting the queue.

  • Delegate registration & VIP arrivals

    Give conference delegates, exhibition visitors and invited guests a clear point of welcome. Book staff for RSVP verification, name badge collection, accreditation passes and directions to sessions or hospitality areas.

    Provide guest categories, desk procedures and any specific reception requirements before the event. Staff can help attendees find the correct queue and refer guest list or access questions to your nominated organiser.

  • Teams for multiple desks, gates & shifts

    Plan staffing around your arrival schedule, venue layout and guest numbers. Request a small check-in team or coverage across several entrances, registration desks and event days.

    Separate scanning, badge collection and guest assistance roles where needed, and allow time for setup and briefing. We review your requested staffing numbers and shifts, then confirm availability and pricing for each date and location.

Plan your event check-in team

Event entry staff for your venue and guest list

From a single reception desk to several entry points, the team can support:

  • Digital ticket and QR code scanning using your event system

  • Guest list checks, RSVP verification and delegate registration

  • Name badge, wristband and accreditation pass distribution

  • VIP arrivals, guest greeting and directional assistance

  • Queue guidance and referral of ticket issues to your nominated contact

How many check-in staff do you need?

The right team size depends on more than total attendance. Tell us how many guests are expected to arrive at once, how many desks or entrances will open, and what each guest needs to do before entering.

Ticket scanning usually involves different tasks from on-site registration, badge collection or checking a VIP guest list. Include separate roles for these stations so your staffing quote reflects the actual workload.

What to include in your staffing brief

  • Event date, venue address and expected attendance

  • Staff shift times, including setup and briefing time

  • Doors-open time and expected arrival peaks

  • Number of entry points, desks and separate guest categories

  • Ticketing platform, devices and system training requirements

  • Uniform, accreditation and venue induction requirements

  • Onsite contact and process for resolving entry questions

Prepare for a consistent arrival process

Provide current guest lists, a venue map and clear instructions for valid tickets, re-entry, late arrivals and exceptions. Confirm who will supply scanners, tablets, badges, wristbands and connectivity.

Staff can then follow your agreed procedures and direct issues to the appropriate event contact. Include any accessible entry routes or guest assistance arrangements in the briefing.
