Wix Events: Creating a Seating Map

13分で読める
Create a seating map so guests can purchase specific seats for your event. You can create seating around tables, rows of seats, areas with unreserved general seating (e.g. a standing room only area), or a combination of any of the above. 
When guests buy tickets, they click to select the seats they want to purchase from the available seating.

Step 1 | Create an event draft

Start by creating an event. Make sure it's a ticketed event, as the tickets are directly related to the seating map you're about to create. When ready, click Create Draft.
ヒント
Build your seating map while the event is still a draft (or while registration is closed) so guests don't purchase tickets before they're connected to specific seats.

Step 2 | Create event tickets

Create up to 50 different ticket types to match your seating map. For instance, if front row seats cost more than back row seats, you can create two ticket types, each for the different pricing areas.
Alternatively, if all tickets are priced the same, you only need one ticket type. 

To create event tickets:

  1. Go to Events in your site's dashboard.
  2. Select the relevant ticketed event.
  3. Click the Tickets and Seating tab.
  4. Create the ticket types you need for your event (e.g. 15 table seats, 90 row seats, and 20 standing room only places). Learn more about creating tickets.
    Tip: You can edit these tickets later or add additional ones.

You can create separate ticket types for the same area (e.g. orchestra, balcony) using Price Options. For example, you can sell orchestra tickets at different prices for adults, teens, and students.

Step 3 | Create the seating map

  2. Select the relevant event.
  3. Click the Tickets and Seating tab.
  4. Select Edit Map.

  6. Select a table, row, or area.
    Tip: You can also click and drag the mouse to select multiple elements at once.
  7. Click Assign next to the relevant ticket type.
  8. Repeat until you have assigned each table, row, and area a ticket type.
