This year was the first year that Goodwood used the InSite ticket collection system at their events. They’ve used it regularly at the horse racing events but that’s nothing to the scale of Festival of Speed. The Festival of Speed always had a lot of ticket collections so Goodwood really wanted to get people moving through quickly. Using the InSite system allows tickets to be collected at any gate, which really spreads the load and made it much easier for visitors as they didn’t have to come in via the main gate.
Goodwood use the InSite Access Control module and we also provide experienced gate management staff for the major events. A number of our team came straight from the Isle of Wight so a trip to the launderette became an essential part of build-up.
As always at the Festival of Speed its long days but its a great team to work with and the appreciative visitors help too. Looking forward to 2013.
