WHAT ARE EVENT BADGES
Badges are more than just name tags—they play a vital role in event security, branding, and enhancing the attendee experience. Typically made from durable materials like cardstock, plastic, or synthetic paper, attendees usually wear them with lanyards or badge holders for convenience and visibility.
VIP badges are an excellent way to organize attendees at events. They can serve as simple yet impactful passes that provide backstage access to concerts and music festivals, or they can be used to manage convention attendees, granting access to seminars, luncheons, and networking events specific to each wearer. In short, event badges are a terrific attendee management solution! Lastly, they're almost like mini wearable billboards advertising your event, which helps to reinforce your brand and even spread awareness.

HOW DO BADGES ENHANCE EVENT SECURITY?
Badges increase security by giving staff a quick way to recognize attendees, which helps prevent unauthorized access. Adding barcodes or QR codes allows instant scanning, ensuring each badge is legitimate and minimizing the risk of ticket fraud. This is especially useful at events with multiple sessions, different access points, or high traffic.
