Zones

Overview

Zones refer to designated areas within an event venue that can be customized and managed separately. Zones help organizers effectively organize event spaces and activities efficiently. Each zone can represent different areas, such as exhibition halls, conference rooms, lounges, networking areas, or outdoor spaces. Organizers can customize each zone's location, schedule, and access permissions according to their event requirements.

Different Types of Zones

You can create various types of zones to accommodate different activities and areas within your event venue. Some common types of zones include:

Exhibition Hall
Conference Rooms
Networking Areas
Lounge Areas
Registration Desk
Outdoor Spaces
Food & Beverage Areas
Sponsor or Partner Zones
Media or Press Zones
Technical Zones

By creating different types of zones, you can organize your event space effectively and cater to the various activities and needs of attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, and other event recipients.

The Zones feature is available for Premium and Ultimate plan users. Zones are available for In-Person and Hybrid events only.
