Why is it useful?

The “Tables” tab on your Evenium platform allows you to create a seating plan for sub-events. With this tool, you can visually organize guest seating, distribute participants among different tables, and adjust the configuration according to your needs. This tool facilitates assignment management and limits errors on the day of the event.


Table management allows you to manage your event's seating plan, including quota issues.
