We had a fantastic time supporting operations at Cheltenham Festival this year.

A small but highly effective team focused on asset protection and loss prevention, working discreetly alongside other departments to support our client and deliver excellent outcomes throughout the week.

While we’re disappointed to hear that the remaining fixtures have been cancelled due to track upgrades, we’re already looking ahead to the next season after the summer.

A huge thank you to our supervisor, regular team members, and those new to the team who stepped up for the Festival, your professionalism and teamwork made it an incredible week.

Next stop: Aintree Grand National.

Over the past couple of years, Main Event Security Ltd has been proud to support an advertising partner with asset protection services on various campaigns.

Our teams have provided 24-hour coverage across multiple locations throughout the UK, ensuring high-value assets remained secure while on location and during live campaign activity.

This type of work relies on discretion, reliability, and trust; often operating behind the scenes while campaigns run smoothly and without interruption.

Thank you to everyone involved for their continued professionalism and commitment across these projects.

We’re proud to continue supporting complex, location-based campaigns nationwide.

We’ve recently completed winter shutdown site security at a holiday park, providing overnight cover to keep the site secure while closed to the public.

While many people know us for our event security, this is a great example of the wider services we offer — including static guarding, site security, and out-of-hours protection for vacant or seasonal locations.

Whether it’s a short-term requirement or long-term cover, our teams deliver a calm, reliable presence tailored to each site.

If you’d like to know more about our site security services, please get in touch.

We’re pleased to report a successful weekend at Cheltenham Racecourse, supporting operations in a loss prevention capacity.

A small but highly effective team delivered a calm, professional presence throughout the event, demonstrating exactly how much impact the right people can have when it matters.

Thank you to both our regular staff and those new to the team for their commitment, flexibility, and professionalism across the weekend.

A Special thank you to Sean M, who stepped in at the last minute to lead the team after our usual supervisor was unfortunately injured the night before; wishing you a speedy recovery!!
Stepping up under pressure and delivering seamlessly is no small thing, and it didn’t go unnoticed.

Well done to everyone involved for a solid, professional weekend’s work.

2026 marks a fresh chapter for Main Event Security Ltd.

Like many businesses, we took time over the last couple of years to consolidate, reflect, and focus on doing things properly — not loudly.

As we move into 2026, we’re proud to be picking up momentum again, supporting events and venues with experienced, professional security teams built on trust, compliance, and people-first values.

We look forward to sharing more as the year unfolds.

In today’s society, the threat from terrorism remains real. This app provides guidance for a range of situations. Keep informed and updated at all times.

citizenAID has greatly enhanced its smartphone app to include information on both vehicle and acid attacks, alongside shooting, stabbing and bombing incidents.

There is also guidance for what to do on encountering an unattended item in a public place. This guidance also supports the response of staff who work in these areas where unattended items are a common occurrence.

The app is a step-by-step guide on how the public can act to stay safe and save the lives of the injured.

There is clear and simple direction on how to prioritise the injured, how to deal with life-threatening bleeding, and how to communicate with the 999 services in a structured way using the mnemonics SLIDE and MIST.
