Select Seating Plan
You will find the seating plan in your event under Invite > Seating Plan. Seating plans are prepared and uploaded by our team. Contact us at support@eyevip.com if you need a new seating plan.
If multiple seating plans are stored in your eyevip, you can select one of them from the dropdown menu in the left column.
Good to know: The seat allocation is not (yet) suitable for event series because only one seating plan can be stored per event. Furthermore, seats can only be allocated once per event.
