Zoom Events

An introduction to Zoom Events

This page is incomplete and we don’t yet know when we’ll be adding to it [6/9/22]

How is Zoom Events different from Zoom meetings and webinars?

“Zoom Events” work a little differently from the Zoom Meetings and Zoom Webinars we’re used to.

It provides a conference experience: with multiple sessions, multiple concurrent sessions (workshops) and the ability to run over multiple days. Each individual session is, in effect, a “normal” Zoom Meeting or Webinar that we’re used to using.

But instead of having to have multiple links for each one, people only need one single, simple link to the Event

What does it look like

There are three main areas in Zoom Events that you’ll come across: Event TICKET / Event LOBBY (+ list of sessions) / Event SESSION …
(click images to zoom in)

What can you do in the Lobby

When you join the Event you arrive in the ‘LOBBY’ where you can:

View all sessions in the event
Join any of the sessions that are currently in progress
Bookmark the sessions you’re interested in (visible in your “Itinerary” tab)
Chat to others in the Lobby
View Sponsor areas and rooms

How to join an Event

Zoom Events can take a little longer to join, first time in. So join early to ensure you don’t miss an important session.
