Departments run their own events without their own accounts.
Common challenges
Every department runs its own events
Faculties, the alumni office, and admissions all book separately, and each ends up with a different-looking page.
One institution, one brand
A prospective student should not be able to tell which internal team built the page they landed on.
The same events, every year
Open days, orientation, and graduation come round on the calendar — rebuilding them annually is wasted work.
What to look for in event software for universities
A university runs hundreds of small events across departments, most of them free, under one institutional brand. Six checks.
- 01
Departments that can run their own events
Invite colleagues as team members and each department creates and runs its own events: five members on Pro, thirty on Business, unlimited on Enterprise.
- 02
One brand for the institution
Save one template set for the institution and every department starts its events from it.
- 03
Free events without payment setup
Free ticket types need no payment account at all. Connect Stripe or PayPal only when you sell paid places, such as an alumni dinner.
- 04
Registration on pages you already run
Embed the ticket list or the full registration form in any university page that accepts custom HTML; the widget is isolated from your site's stylesheet.
- 05
Open days you do not rebuild
Duplicate last year's open day and the form, ticket types and branding carry over; you change the dates and the programme.
- 06
Check-in run by student helpers
Helpers who only scan join a phone with a short code you approve — no account, no seat — and keep scanning if the campus Wi-Fi drops.
Tools for universities
One template set every department reuses, so an admissions open day and a faculty seminar look like the same institution.
Put registration on the university's own pages, so applicants and alumni stay on your site.
Free places for students and staff, paid tickets for public lectures, with approval where places are limited.
QR check-in for a lecture theatre, badge printing for a graduation or an alumni dinner.
Drop registration into an existing department page or the student portal, no redirect.
Attendance across departments and across years, in one place rather than a spreadsheet per office.
Your event workflow
- SET UPBuild the institution template
One template set and one domain that every department will use.
- PER EVENTDepartments self-serve
Each team clones the template for their own event without touching the branding.
- ON THE DAYCheck in
Scan at the door for lectures; print badges for graduations and alumni dinners.
- EACH YEARClone the calendar
Open day, orientation, and graduation come back with last year's setup intact.
