Configure the lobby

  • Updated
This article outlines how to configure the Lobby in a Bevy Virtual Conference

About the lobby

The lobby is the entry point for all those who join your Bevy Virtual Conference. Use a lobby video to:

  • Create excitement as the first attendee touchpoint.
  • Give attendees directions for navigating the platform.
  • Promote engagement by changing the video from day to day.
  • Give a sponsorship shout-out.

Add a lobby

  1. Edit your virtual conference event.
  2. Within the General Information tab of the event settings, enter the details in the lobby section.
    • Logo/image: Max height 90px JPG or PNG
    • Intro text/Welcome message: Up to 100 characters
    • Video: YouTube link or you can upload an MP4 file. If Youtube, ensure you are not using shortened or appended YouTube link.

      No auto-play. Attendee must click play to start the video.

    • Sponsor/Partner logos: Can link to specific booths. (These logos will display based on the logos that you've added in your event creation.) They will display on a carousel.lobby_managed_eventcreation.png

The lobby is not required. If you don't fill out the details when creating your event, a lobby will not display and attendees will enter the event at the Agenda.
