AT&T Stadium upgrades security services

AT&T Stadium, one of the largest, most technologically advanced entertainment venues in the world, will be upgrading its security services by partnering with BEST Crowd Management, a GardaWorld company.

As the home of the Dallas Cowboys, the stadium has hosted Super Bowl XLV, the 2010 NBA All Star Game, the annual Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic, the 2014 NCAA Men’s Final Four, the 2015 inaugural College Football Playoff Championship Game, the 2015 50th Anniversary Academy of Country Music Awards show and WrestleMania 32.

The stadium will be using metal detection, bag checks, access control, security rovers and field security, plus critical crowd management functions such as ticket scanning, ushering, and concierge services.

In addition to staffing home games, AT&T Stadium will be partnering with BEST to secure concerts and other major events.
