Types of Support

Event Set up & Break down

Our Event Prep staff will be prepping and setting up the zones on the morning of the event and into the afternoon hours (lunch and hydration will be provided). These staff should be hard-working and not afraid to get their hands dirty.

Our closing staff will support the breakdown of the event.

Ticketing and Check-In staff

Our Ticketing and Check-In staff are the first impressions that our guests have of EDSLC, setting the tone for a lovely evening!

Check-In Staff will assist with checking tickets as guests arrive. They will manage the ticket lines to ensure guests are entering the event in an orderly manner and are greeted with an upbeat, friendly welcome.

Check-In Staff should be outgoing, enthusiastic, and informed individuals.

There will be 1-2 ticketing staff who will remain at the check-in tables until the event is over to assure that a guest hasn’t entered the event unauthorized or is not leaving the event/lingering at the entrance intoxicated.

Most importantly, these staff will thank each departing guest for attending and provide well wishes for them to get home safely.
