Why using wristbands for events is the best option

In past years, controlling admission and keeping track of attendance to events used tickets. Tickets were issued for big to-dos such as carnivals, exhibits, concerts, festivals, and more. However, damaged, torn, and lost tickets were the usual issues along with the long queues.

Today, while some events still use tickets, wristbands for events are seen as the better alternative. The reasons that can convince you to opt with wristbands for your next event include:

Easily identifiable

Checking individual tickets or passes at entry points of an event is a time-consuming task for security staff and personnel. Opting for wristbands, whether customised or basic, quickly allows participants entry by simply flashing them at the gate. The problem of long queues and frustrated guests is eliminated with wristbands that can be quickly scanned at the gate.

They can be customised

The wide variety of wristbands enables you to choose the colour, style, design, and pattern suitable to the nature of the event. Inter-school sports activities can use uniquely-designed school wristbands. What’s more, customised wristbands can be printed out with the essential information of the event such as its motto, brand, name of the organisation, or logo. Printing choices include debossed or embossed and specific wristband material to use.

They can secure and control the crowd

Wristbands can provide the needed security and control over the crowd of attendees. Opting for wristbands that tighten when worn on the wrist is a good way of ensuring that it’s not passed on from one person to the next. Colour-coding wristbands for general admission and VIP are excellent solutions for separating the attendees. The same colour-coding wristbands can be used to identify the event staff, performers, and vendors as well.

Their size fits all

The durable materials used in wristbands ensure that ruining or losing it during the event is not likely to happen. The size of the bands is not an issue as well as the design of the wristbands allows them to be tightened once worn. Some wristbands fashioned out of silicone pretty much works like rubber bands. This allows people of all sizes to comfortably wear the wristbands throughout the event.

They are easy to use

Stories about lost and damaged tickets have always plagued attendees to big events. Choosing to issue wristbands avoids the issue of lost or damaged tickets. The simple act of removing the wristband from its packaging and slipping it on the wrist is all the action needed by attendees to gain entry to an event.

They function as great mementos of an event

Events such as concerts or sports competitions are attended by loyal fans. Collecting memorabilia is a must for these fans as a way to commemorate the event. Using wristbands during these events provides fans a great reminder of the memorable event. This makes it important for memorable events to choose wristbands that are customised and beautifully designed.

They easily promote your cause or brand

A brand or cause is easily promoted when it’s said with wristbands. Participants required to wearing the wristbands during the event provide free promotion of the brand or cause without even trying.

Opting to use tickets for your next big event is good, but using wristbands is the better alternative. With wristbands, attendance and security control are ensured.

5 Ways in Which The Pandemic Has Affected The Tourism Industry

The Aviation Industry got affected the most because, in over 100 countries, air travel was banned. It is highly unsafe to sit in an airplane during a time when we can’t share our breathing space with anyone else. Even though planes have air filtration systems it’s highly advised to avoid them because there is not enough distance between the passengers or fresh air.

So this industry received a major blow and has lost nearly 80% of the business even though it’s the fastest way to travel and people were stranded when they banned it. Even after the ban, most people are avoiding it although the tickets are almost half off.

People stopped staying in hotels as it’s unsanitary

The hardest thing is this, even if people manage to drive to a place they need a place to stay, but due to the pandemic, people don’t want to risk staying at a hotel or Airbnb. This happens because germs are left on door handles, beds, and carpets. Everything can’t be sterilized so it’s easy to transfer germs if people book them back to back. These businesses received a major blow as they have been vacant for months. 

Car Services

People usually get around using public transport or services like Uber during their tours. But that was suspended too. Public transport is the cheapest way to get around in a new city, but just like airplanes, trains or taxis aren’t very clean and lack fresh air.

This makes people feel threatened and was suspended by the government for some time. This affected the drivers of Uber and Kareem because they depended on their daily earnings to support their families. Also, taxi, bus, and train workers were jobless and haven’t recovered fully yet.

Many famous tourist attractions are closed

Organizations and Companies got their money from selling tickets and souvenirs to people. Many places like the Bean in Chicago, Eiffel Tower in Paris, Disneyland and adventure tours western Australia have closed down and will reopen. If large sites like these closed then we know that all the smaller and less popular ones closed as well that helped support small towns or cities.

These sites attracted hundreds of thousands of tourists every year and that helped boost all industries of a country, especially the local vendors, who sell local food, souvenirs, clothes, and handcrafted goods. 

Reluctant to travel after the pandemic

Even after the pandemic ends people will be reluctant. As seen in some places the airplanes used weren’t maintained and they crashed. This may have been because many people were laid off and when there weren’t regular maintenance checks happening, so it ended in a disaster.

The aftershocks of this pandemic will affect everything even after the pandemic as people are cautious but hopefully, everything should recover. This pandemic has helped our environment a lot and has helped reverse the clock, this might slow down the sixth mass extinction. This also made the green sites a lot cleaner and so it may look more beautiful and may attract more people.

WHAT TO SEE IN MELBOURNE IN TWO DAYS

Melbourne is a city of cosmopolitan charm. Seemingly European, it is actually a “frontier” city : always remember that we are – at least from our point of view – on the other side of the world, squeezed between ocean and desert.

The ideal would be to slip into its folds and participate in concerts and cultural events, which are the order of the day here. But anyhow: you can’t always choose and therefore, if you have 48 hours available and maybe Melbourne is a passing stop for you, I suggest a short list of things to do / see.

Start at Federation Square , the main square, and arrive at Bourke Street and beyond. It is here, in fact, that business is played out, it is here that people buy, stroll, play. Federation Square, in particular, is the quintessential meeting point for every Australian, and is usually called Fed Square. It houses various bars and museums, including the Australian Center for the Moving Image and the Ian Potter Center / NGV Australia, a gallery dedicated to Australian and Aboriginal art in all its forms.

This path, which passes by the imposing St Paul’s Cathedral , has the shape of a quadrilateral, inside which it is not unlikely that you will find singers and extraordinary improvisers, which make Then reach the Queen Victoria Market , a huge open-air market, where you can rummage through various trinkets and restaurants.

AFTERNOON:
After lunch, the Shrine of Remembrance awaits you : located inside the Kings Domain , a green park surrounded by skyscrapers, it is a memorial dedicated to the Australian fallen. An idyllic stroll, which could be even more so if you add the adjacent botanical gardens to the list of things to see. But you can’t do everything in 48 hours!

Finally, we will conclude the itinerary by visiting the famous Butchart Gardens , a fairytale place where we will immerse ourselves in nature.

To reach the State of Victoria it is particularly convenient to fly to Melbourne . For this trip I flew with Qatar Airways . If you want some more advice, I refer you to the first part of the guide to the discovery of Australia in which I talked about the flight experience.
