On so many levels, the advent of COVID-19 and the tragedy at Astroworld music festival drastically altered the event security landscape. After the Astroworld tragedy, event security experts saw that the rampant gate-crashing could become an indication of what was to come.
This is why Coachella spent a lot of money installing a large solid fence with cement underground, according to Cory Meredith, the President of Allied Universal Event Services.
Access to cutting-edge technology, such as AI
Cory Meredith, President - Allied Universal Event Services, at Allied Universal said, “Today’s security professionals are highly trained in crowd management, with access to cutting edge technology, including artificial intelligence (AI).”

State-of-the-art technology that connects artificial intelligence and human response to better protect people with accurate real-time data and safer social interaction is the ‘gold standard’ in our industry.”
