Large venues cluster around Lockleaze. Two stadiums, a conference centre, the Boiling Wells Amphitheatre and Kelvin Players Studio Theatre all draw crowds within 5km.

Our event security officers are SIA-licensed and BS 7858 vetted, and our 24/7 control room supports every booking.
Lockleaze Business Profile
Within 10 miles of Lockleaze our network counts 160 registered security workers. Eighty of them hold valid SIA licences and are open for bookings, and 25 run their own cars, which helps with mobile patrols between venues and sites. For big fixtures we can combine these local officers with others from our wider network, all screened to BS 7858 and employed through PAYE.
Across the City of Bristol there are 18,305 registered businesses, led by professional services on 3,320 and construction on 2,170. Tech and communications total 1,870, a 10.2% slice compared with 7.0% for Britain, so offices here often need access control and CCTV monitoring. Finance firms, at 2.7% against 2.1%, tend to want reception cover by day and alarm response overnight.
Memorial Stadium, Bristol County Ground and the Exhibition and Conference Centre can each hold crowds beyond 200, the point at which Martyn's Law duties will begin once the Act takes effect. We help organisers with search regimes, stewarding plans and evacuation procedures. What Martyn's Law means for venues.
