Experienced Event Crew for Major London Venues

Alpha Crew have worked on events at countless venues across London including prominent locations like Wembley Stadium, O2 Academy Brixton, and Tate Modern, where we transformed gallery spaces into a runway and after-party for the Gucci Cruise 2025 show. This ambitious fashion show required us to help install the largest disco ball to ever be constructed and over 10,000 trees and plants.

Our familiarity with major London venues allows us to anticipate and address any venue-specific challenges. Additionally, our established relationships ensure smooth coordination and collaboration with site staff. For the past 10 years, we have worked with historic Somerset House on their winter Skate event, which features an outdoor ice rink and pop-up restaurants and bars in their famous courtyard.

Alpha Crew’s team have a wealth of specialised experience in live music, brand displays, and prestigious film and TV premieres like the high-profile European Barbie Premiere, which was the talk of the summer. We are adept at managing complex events and are well equipped to handle backstage coordination, audience management and crowd control, and any other logistical or security challenges.

We offer a range of professional security guard services, from certified door supervisors and trained stewards to security guard patrols, for all types of events in London. We have provided security services at Westfield London in White City, including for a L'Oréal Paris promotional stand and van. Recognising that this outdoor setup was vulnerable to theft and vandalism in a public space, we supplied round-the-clock security to ensure its safety.
