Frequently Asked Questions: Event Security in Brighton

Do I need SIA-licensed security for Brighton Pride?

Yes. Any event open to the public in the UK that uses security personnel to guard, patrol, or control crowds requires those personnel to hold a valid SIA (Security Industry Authority) licence. For an event the size of Brighton Pride, this is not just a legal requirement — it is essential for the safety of attendees and staff. 247 Security Solutions employs only SIA-licensed guards, all on direct employment contracts with GPS tracking and full accountability.

How do I hire event security in Brighton?

The simplest way is to call 247 Security Solutions directly on 0800 0016 247. We offer free consultations and same-day quotes for events of any size. Our team will assess your event requirements, venue layout, expected attendance, and risk profile, then provide a tailored security plan with fully costed options. You can also email us at admin@247securitysolution.co.uk.

What does event security cost for a festival in the UK?

Event security costs vary depending on the size and nature of the event, the number of SIA-licensed guards required, the hours of coverage, and any specialist requirements such as search teams, crowd management supervisors, or mobile units. For a small festival or market in Brighton, costs typically start from a few hundred pounds for a single-day deployment. For large events such as Brighton Pride, costs are higher and reflect the scale of coverage required. 247 Security Solutions provides transparent, itemised quotes with no hidden costs. Call 0800 0016 247 for a same-day estimate.
