Quick answer
Charity benefit concerts and fundraiser gigs often use wristbands for entry control, VIP or donor tiers, and as a keepsake for supporters who attended in aid of a cause.
A benefit gig combines a live event with a fundraising goal, and a wristband is a simple way to manage entry while giving supporters something to remember the night by.
Managing entry at a benefit concert
A wristband confirms who's paid or donated for entry, useful for organisers running a ticketed fundraiser gig with limited capacity.
VIP, sponsor and donor tiers
A different colour per tier makes it easy to identify VIP guests, major donors or sponsors at a glance during the event.
