Accreditation Management & Planning

Management that
keeps events moving.

AuthZone brings more than 15 years of live event experience to your accreditation project, from first planning sessions to the last crew leaving site. We care about the show, not only the software.

Specialists in accreditation operations.

We have worked around the world with leading organisers across sport, esports, exhibitions, and live entertainment. That experience feeds into every plan we build, every matrix we design, and every onsite decision we support.

Global event experience

We understand what it takes to accredit thousands of people across complex venues.

  • More than 15 years in live events and accreditation.
  • Work across arenas, stadiums, city sites, and fan zones.
  • Experience with broadcasters, teams, partners, and sponsors.

Operations first mindset

We care about queues, flows, and briefings as much as pass layouts.

  • Plans shaped with security, crowd, and production teams.
  • Zone and device layouts that match real movement on site.
  • Simple tools that crews can trust under pressure.

Part of your team

We sit alongside your operations group, not on the edge of it.

  • Clear ownership and named contacts from day one.
  • Regular check ins across the full planning cycle.
  • Support during key milestones and live days.

Whether you need a critical friend for planning or a hands on delivery partner, we help design, run, and improve your accreditation and access processes.

Support shaped around your team.

Our services are flexible. Some organisers want a sounding board for planning. Others want AuthZone to run accreditation delivery with them across a full season or tour.

  • Coordinating passes, devices, and updates with control rooms.
  • Support for VIP, media, and broadcast groups.

  • Standardised briefing packs and training content.
  • Central point of contact for all accreditation topics.
  • Regular reviews to keep plans aligned with real world lessons.

As invested in your event as you are.

We know accreditation is not a tick box task. It protects people, keeps shows on time, and shapes the experience for staff, crews, and guests. Our team is passionate about live events and brings that mindset into every project we support.

From the first planning call to the final debrief, you get a partner who cares about the outcome of your event and the experience of everyone who passes through your gates.
