The Cannes International Games Festival
The Cannes International Games Festival, a must-attend event for board game enthusiasts and industry professionals, once again brought together thousands of visitors at the Palais des Festivals. Over several days, this major event transformed Cannes into the global capital of gaming, attracting an international audience eager to discover the latest releases, meet publishers, and share a unique gaming experience.
Security Designed to Preserve the Visitor Experience
At large-scale events like the Cannes International Games Festival, security must be highly effective while remaining discreet so as not to disrupt the visitor experience. By leveraging advanced technologies powered by artificial intelligence and smart sensors, the Evolv Express solution helped streamline access control while maintaining a high level of safety.
Visitors were able to enter the festival quickly without having to stop for lengthy checks, empty their bags, or remove personal belongings. Capable of screening up to 4,000 people per hour, the system facilitated smooth entry to the venue while ensuring precise detection of potential threats.
This approach allowed organizers to maintain a steady flow of attendees, even during peak periods, while preserving the friendly and relaxed atmosphere that is central to the spirit of the festival.
Technology Supporting Comfort and Crowd Management
Beyond access screening, the technology also provided security teams with greater visibility over site attendance. Thanks to real-time data insights, teams were able to anticipate peak arrival times, adjust on-site resources, and ensure smooth movement of visitors throughout the different areas of the festival.
As a result, security became a natural part of the event’s organization, contributing to a safe and reassuring environment for both visitors and exhibitors.
Setting New Standards for Security at Major Events
The deployment of Evolv Express at the Cannes International Games Festival demonstrates how innovative technologies can transform security management at large gatherings. By combining intelligent detection, data-driven insights, and ease of use, the solution offers an optimal balance of protection, efficiency, and discretion.
The Cannes International Games Festival is more than just a trade show — it is a moment of discovery, connection, and shared passion for the gaming community. Ensuring the safety of an event of this scale requires solutions that match the quality of the experience offered. With Evolv Express, Aitecal once again shows how security can integrate seamlessly into an event while preserving both the quality of the welcome and the enjoyment of visitors.
