LOCATION DETAILS
When you create a location once, you won't have to create it again. Click Create New Venue, enter the details and you'll be able to access it on any future event you host.
You can also modify the details of any existing venue, for example if you made a mistake when initially entering the address.
You can add additional venue details (like parking instructions) below. All of this information (should you decide to include) will appear on the map panel on your event homepage. At the bottom of the mini map panel, you'll see a link to "Show More". Click it and you'll see your info.
VIRTUAL & MULTI-LOCALE EVENTS
By default, the Location utility in the Event Builder offers you the choice of assigning your event the designation of either a:
- Virtual Location
- Multi-Location
If your event falls under one of these categories, make sure to select the appropriate designation in the Location Details tool. When selected, the event homepage will display a decal in the map panel signifying what you picked.
The confirmation email of your event will also indicate the designation that you chose, ensuring that your registrants are properly informed.
MAIN EVENT LOCATION AND ADDITIONAL LOCATIONS
Each event has the notion of a primary location - the location when most of the event activities will take place.
If you event has other locations - say for an off-site activity or event another city - go ahead and create the additional "venues" (locations). You can then specify the additional locations with the specific registration item representing the offsite activity. Within the Registration item details, click "Location & Time" to set the location of the activity.
ROOM MANAGER
Within a specific venue, you can add ROOMS. Choose any venue in your library FIRST. Then add the Room Name and optionally the capacity (for your own planning). Then click the Add button.
This will save the set of rooms to the venue. You can then specify the room of an activity on the agenda or within the corresponding registration item. Within the Registration item details, click "Location & Time" to set the location and room of the activity.
