Guides to event accreditation
Short answers to what we’re asked most when preparing an event: how many points to set up and how to run the desk, what to put on the badge and what happens to the data, and how to organise a festival, a graduation or a venue with contractors.
How many registration points do I need?
Between 30 and 90 seconds per person and one printer for every two points: the maths, with examples.
How to set up the registration desk
What each point needs and how to organise the queue so people get through quickly.
What to put on an event badge
Two or three big fields: examples for conferences, graduations, trade fairs and staff.
Badges by profile and zone
Artists, press, staff, suppliers and VIPs, each with their own zones and days.
How to organise accreditation for a graduation
Graduate registration, guest tickets by email and help on the day.
Contractors with health and safety in order
How accreditation connects to the health and safety platform, step by step.
How to make event badges accessible
Large text, good contrast and a registration form that asks what each person needs.
What happens to attendee data
Who decides, what’s kept and for how long, and how it’s deleted.
