Out of 2019 and into 2020.....

The New Year used to signify a busy football calendar for CSP, but now we support the close of year and the celebration of the new year. Like Jools Holland on the BBC, the New Years Eve fireworks in London by the Thames has now become a regular diary fixture. Over 100,000 people book to attend this extravaganza and this requires a massive operation to effectively deliver a safe and fantastic event. Approx 12,000 fireworks are exploded from midnight with 2,000 of these alone launched from the London Eye.

CSP are proud to deliver a major road closure program to support this great event utilising 200 CSP staff.

With no pause for breath, we launch straight into a major security and stewarding operation the next day supporting the 2020 New Year's Day Parade where Thousands of spectators line the streets from Piccadilly to Parliament to watch a colourful procession of dancers, acrobats, marching bands & historic vehicles featuring approx 10,000 performers and operating for it's 34th year. It just gets bigger and better and we are proud to continue supporting the delivery of this fantastic event with the delivery of over 250 staff.

Well done to all of our teams supporting and giving up their New Year celebrations to keep others safe.
