So using the access key as an example:

If I buy an NFT that grants me access to a very exclusive conference, how can I be sure that security will actually let me into this conference? Or how can I be sure at the time of purchase that the conference will actually happen?

You would need to have a preexisting trust relationship with the issuer of the NFT. If it was originally minted with a keypair known to belong to the conference organizer or a trusted third party TicketMaster, then it'll probably be honored at the venue. If not, caveat emptor.

So how does this have any advantage over a regular ticket? (Other than “collectibles”)

No one can be absolutely certain of a future event, but you are being unreasonably negative.

Ok what’s the advantage of an NFT over a regular ticket then?
