Tupper Security provides licensed event security and crowd control across Brisbane, Ipswich, and South-East Queensland. Anthony Tupper holds the Queensland Crowd Controller licence personally; every guard on an event is individually licensed. We hold QLD Security Firm Licence (Class 1) #4572076.

What we cover

  • Crowd control — RSA-aligned, calm-first, escalation-ready
  • Static guards — entry points, back-of-house, VIP areas
  • Access management — guest list, ticketing checkpoint, accreditation
  • Bag and ID checks — venue or organiser policy as required
  • Liaison with police, paramedics, venue staff — known faces, single point of contact
  • Pre-event walk-through and risk assessment — included in scoping

Events we staff

  • Corporate functions — Brisbane CBD, South Bank, riverside venues. Discreet presence, professional dress code option.
  • Private events & weddings — Karalee, Brookwater, Mount Tamborine, Brisbane inner suburbs. Calm presence, guest-list management.
  • Venue work — Milton (Suncorp precinct), Fortitude Valley, West End. Scaled crowd control for ticketed nights.
  • Public events — markets, festivals, community gatherings across Ipswich and the corridor.
  • Sporting events — local and regional competitions, junior tournaments, club fundraisers.

How we scope an event

  1. Brief. Date, venue, attendee count, alcohol, risk factors, organiser priorities.
  2. Walk-through. Site visit (where useful), entry/exit mapping, choke points, emergency egress.
  3. Plan. Guard count, positioning, briefing pack, contingency tree, communications.
  4. Brief and run. Pre-event briefing on site, structured shifts, debrief at stand-down.
  5. Report. Written incident log delivered next business day with anything you need to act on.

Capacity for large events

We scale officer numbers to the brief — from a single guard for a private function through to multi-officer teams for ticketed venue nights. Our network of licensed crowd controllers and security officers across South-East Queensland means we can resource any size deployment a contract requires, with named officers and documented post orders rather than a body-shop model.

Pairs well with

Multi-day events often layer event security with overnight mobile patrols for the venue and access control for back-of-house. See how event security is priced →

Frequently asked

It depends on attendee count, alcohol service, venue layout, and risk profile. Corporate dinners often run 1 guard per 100 guests; alcohol-served public events usually run higher; high-profile or VIP events depend on threat assessment. We scope this during the planning call once we have the event details.
Yes. Every crowd controller holds a current Queensland Crowd Controller licence and works to RSA standards on alcohol-served events. Anthony Tupper holds the Crowd Controller licence personally — the standard the firm operates to comes from the top.
We staff events at venues across Milton (Suncorp Stadium precinct), Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, South Bank, and West End. Venue-side requirements (badging, briefings, debrief) are factored into the quote — we run the compliance load, not you.
Two to four weeks for standard corporate events; six to eight weeks if your event falls on a busy weekend (NRL home games, concerts, festivals). Last-minute requests are sometimes possible — call us and we'll tell you honestly whether we can resource it.
