We pride ourselves that we are customer focused, so that our presence at the venue enhances the public's enjoyment and we are excited to be working with Earls Court for a further two and a half years."

The stewarding staff is the first and the last faces that concertgoers see, their behavior leaves a lasting impression on the public. It is important that the audiences enjoy the night feeling safe and relaxed."
