MADA Staffing Request event staff

Major Events & Festivals

Event Staffing

Servers, hosts, customer service and ticket sales, kitchen crews and security for corporate events, banquets, trade shows, conferences, festivals and productions across BC.

We train our crews before we deploy them — so your supervisors are not running orientation on event day. Our crews also worked all 8 Vancouver matches of the FIFA World Cup 26, roughly 400 shifts across the tournament.

Typical turnaround on an urgent call-out

Every role your event needs

The roles we schedule most are servers, hosts, customer service and ticket sales — with kitchen brigades, logistics and security from the same supplier, so you are not juggling multiple agencies.

Servers & bartenders

Trained to a service standard before they arrive. Serving It Right and FOODSAFE confirmed and kept current.

Hosts & guest services

We build customized training around your organization's service standards, so hosts deliver the experience you designed — not a generic one.

Customer service & ticket sales

Box office, will-call, wristbanding and guest enquiries — staff trained on your ticketing process and your escalation path.

Registration, check-in & coat check

Delegate registration, badge pickup, coat and bag check for conferences and trade shows.

Chefs, prep & line cooks

Full kitchen brigades for banquets, corporate catering and back-of-house production.

Kitchen & back-of-house support

Dish, prep and kitchen support so service never falls behind.

Event logistics & transportation

Load-in, load-out and on-site moves for the same event.

Setup, teardown & post-event cleaning

Room turns between sessions, and the venue handed back clean.

Security

Licensed guards for access control, crowd management and asset protection.

What makes us different

We train, then we deploy

We are much more than a staffing company. We are a training and development company that deploys the people we train — built on 20+ years of post-secondary education experience alongside our years in industry.

Most agencies send whoever is available. We send a crew that has trained together, so your floor runs on practice instead of luck.

  • Training before a first deployment
  • Customized programs per client
  • Crews that have worked together
  • No orientation cost on your side

How a call-out works

Most clients reach us because something went wrong this morning. The process is built for that.

STEP 1

You tell us the event

Roles, headcount, venue, event dates and any certifications the job requires.

STEP 2

We match from the pool

We draw from workers already screened, trained and cleared for events — not from a job posting.

STEP 3

Crew arrives briefed

Workers get your venue details, dress code and reporting contact before doors.

STEP 4

We handle the rest

Engagement, pay, coverage and timesheets stay with us. You approve hours and receive one invoice.

What you are not taking on

Bringing in event crews should reduce your risk, not add to it.

No overtime premium

Flat hourly rate. If your event runs long, the extra hours bill at the same rate you agreed to — no time-and-a-half on your invoice.

WorkSafeBC coverage

Active coverage in good standing. Clearance letters provided on request.

Screened before dispatch

Right to work verified, references checked, and event-specific certification confirmed and kept current.

A trained crew, not a list of names

Other agencies send whoever is available. We send people who have trained together and worked together, so your floor runs on practice instead of luck. How we train
