The safety and security of our attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, partners, and staff is our top priority at The Gathering. While much of our security infrastructure is working behind the scenes in conjunction with Rosen Shingle Creek, we are continuously reviewing and enhancing our procedures to ensure the safest experience possible for everyone.  

Security measures and operational plans are in place at our events, including: 

  • Badge/ticket verification 
  • Uniformed and covert security guards 
  • Crowd management staff, signage and barriers, as necessary 

To help us all stay safe and secure during the event, here are five key things you can do:  

  1. Remove Your Badge When Exiting the Event  
    • While badges are required within the event space, please remove your badge when leaving the event space. On the final day of the event, we’ll have designated receptacles for the safe disposal of badges.  
  2. Stay Aware of Your Surroundings  
    • Always remain alert, especially in crowded areas. Trust your instincts—if something doesn’t feel right, take note of it. If you see something, say something. Please report any suspicious activity immediately to event management or onsite security personnel.  
  3. Protect Your Belongings
    • Keep your valuables close to you at all times. For added security, consider storing important items in your hotel room or locked storage when possible.  
  4. Limit Cash and Use Secure Payment Methods
    • We recommend carrying only what you need in cash. For your safety, use credit cards or ATMs when possible, to minimize the risk of theft. Keep your ID on you at all times.  
  5. Enjoy Responsibly
    • Be mindful of alcohol consumption, especially in unfamiliar environments. Stay aware of your limits and look out for each other. When socializing at night, find a buddy. Avoid traveling alone.
