EVENTS AND REGISTRATION
Fill every seat, run the door, know who came.
Post one-time or recurring events on your public calendar and let residents register online. Set capacity and free or paid ticket tiers. Reminders go out automatically, and a waitlist offers open seats on its own. Scan people in at the door with a phone, print name badges, and see attendance and sales the next morning.
