Step by step

1. 1Open Seating0:03Reserved seating lets attendees pick their exact seat at checkout, like at a cinema. It is for paid events. In your editor, open Seating.
2. 2Start from a template0:12Start from a template, like Cinema, Auditorium, Theatre with balcony or Seminar hall, or draw on a blank grid. We will pick Seminar hall.
3. 3Rows and limits0:22Set the rows, the seats in each row, and the most seats one booking can take. Six is the default. Put the stage at the top or the bottom.
4. 4Add a price category0:31Each seat category is sold at a ticket price from Pricing. Click Add category, give it a name and link it to a ticket, here the Student ticket.
5. 5Paint a row0:40Pick the new category under Paint. Then click a row letter and choose Fill row. The whole row now sells at the student price.
6. 6Wheelchair seats and aisles0:49Mark wheelchair seats the same way. Pick Wheelchair and click the seats. Aisle removes a seat to make a walkway.
7. 7See it as attendees will0:56Click Attendee view to see the map exactly as people will at checkout.
8. 8Save1:01Save. The event capacity is now the number of seats. Finish the layout before you sell, because changing rows later changes the seat numbers.
9. 9How attendees pick seats1:11At checkout, attendees tap the seats they want. A seat is held for 15 minutes while they pay, and taken seats grey out for everyone.
10. 10Seating on the day1:20On the day, open Seating in your event dashboard to see who sits where. Tap seats and press Take off sale to keep them for guests or crew.
