Room layouts

Seven layouts to start from, a room that is all yours

Start from a layout and adapt it to your space: numbered rows with aisles, tables and standing areas share the same floor plan. Capacity comes from the plan.

Theatre

Numbered rows facing the stage, with aisles dividing the audience. For conventions, presentations and award ceremonies.

Classroom

Rows of desks facing the speaker. For training, workshops and technical sessions.

Banquet

Long tables with guests on both sides. For company lunches, team dinners and social moments.

Boardroom

One table with every participant around it. For small meetings, boards and private sessions.

U-shape

Tables arranged in a horseshoe, open towards the speaker. For round tables and discussion sessions.

Gala

Round tables spread across the room. For gala dinners, client events and award evenings.

Cocktail

Standing areas with high tables. For receptions, networking and welcome moments.

Starting layouts to adapt to every room: rows, tables and seats are defined on the floor plan.

All features

From floor plan to welcome, every seat under control

Reusable rooms

Draw the floor plan once and reuse it event after event. Each day can have its own room.

Rows, aisles, tables, standing areas

Combine seating, tables and standing space in one plan. Aisles split the rows and guide the assignment.

Capacity from the floor plan

The number of seats comes from the room: link the plan to the event and capacity updates on its own.

One room, one event at a time

Arena prevents the same room from serving two overlapping events, so every seat stays with the guest who booked it.

Sectors and quotas

Set aside areas for clients, press and VIP guests: each sector has its own seat quota and dedicated invitation link.

Automatic assignment

Every guest gets a seat on registration, based on sector and the room’s filling order.

Groups seated together

Guests registering with others sit next to them: Arena keeps groups together while respecting rows and aisles.

Holds with a reason

Keep seats aside for speakers, partners or last-minute needs, noting the reason for each hold.

Tracked moves

Your team moves guests when needed and finds the history of every change, on an always up-to-date plan.

Capacity and waiting list

Every free seat finds its guest

Arena works with the registration landing page: available seats update with every registration and no room goes beyond its capacity.

Explore registration landing pages
  • Remaining-seat counter and automatic closing when the room is full
  • Waiting list with an automatic email offer when a seat frees up
  • Cancellation from the confirmation email link, with the seat offered to the next guest waiting
  • Alerts to your team when the room fills up, is full or seats free up
  • Guests without a fixed seat welcomed in the sector’s area and visible in the dashboard

Groups and companions

Those who arrive together, sit together

Guests can register with companions or invite a colleague. If the remaining seats are not enough for the whole group, they choose how to proceed.

Split the group

Those who find a seat register right away, the others join the waiting list.

Stay together

The whole group waits on the list and receives the offer when seats free up.

Step back

The group withdraws its registration, without holding any seats.

Guests attending a business event

Ready to begin

The seating is part of the experience

A client convention, an award ceremony, a company dinner: the seating plan connects the programme with the people who will live it.

Your team finds each guest’s sector, row and seat in the event dashboard, ready to guide them on arrival.

Landing + Arena

Registration meets seating

The landing page presents the event and collects registrations. Arena adds the floor plan and seat assignment.

For open days, visits and appointments without assigned seats, the landing page works on its own.

FAQ

Arena: your questions answered

Which layouts can I manage?
Theatre, classroom, banquet, boardroom, U-shape, gala and cocktail as starting layouts. Numbered rows with aisles, tables and standing areas share the same floor plan, with sectors and held seats.
How are seats assigned?
Automatically on registration, based on sector and the room’s filling order, keeping groups together. Your team can hold seats and move guests, with a history of every change.
What happens when a sector is full?
The sector’s guests are welcomed in its area and stay visible in the dashboard, ready for your team to seat them.
Can I use the same room for several events?
Yes. Floor plans are reused event after event, and Arena prevents the same room from being assigned to two overlapping events.
How do I invite the guests of a sector?
Each sector has its own invitation link: guests registering from that link get a seat in the dedicated area.
Does every landing page need Arena?
No. The landing page manages registrations on its own. Arena is activated on request for events with assigned seats.
