Event creation
In just a few steps, you create your own event. In this article, we will mainly focus on step 3 of the process when creating an event in InviteDesk and in particular focusing on creating a live venue (In-person). For the other steps, we refer gladly to the article below.

Step 3: Date and location (Venue - Live)
In the third step when creating or editing an event, you enter where and when the event takes place.
- The “venue” name will be shown in the communication templates. During the communication setup, you could translate this name in case you want to set up a multilingual event.
- The “address” can be used in the event communication and automatically generates a map.
- “Start and end date” is rather obvious. This information is used in the “Add to calendar” feature.
- “Target” is the number of guests you want to invite – when you have limited seats, this number becomes a maximum in combination with the “Overbooking = none” setting.
- “Overbooking” indicates, whether your target is a maximum or rather the desired number of people to track your progress against during the invitation phase.
Overbooking “none” means that we will never let more people register than there are places. "Unlimited" means that an unlimited number of people can register. - By activating the slider "Ticket", you can automatically create a QR ticket for this venue.
(Click on the following link to go to this separate article for more details: “Ticket (Venue)"). - You can "add different locations or venues" with a few clicks in case you want to give your guests the option to join the event location of their choice.
Tip: you can change the order of the venues by clicking on the arrows next to the event.
