How to join

There are three main screens in Zoom Events that you’ll come across:

Event TICKET / Event LOBBY (+ list of sessions) / Event SESSION …

Event TICKET
Event LOBBY + list of sessions
Event SESSION

To Join an Event

It is always worth joining an event early. Especially if this is the first time you are joining a Zoom Event or Conference (as opposed to the regular Zoom meetings we’re all used to).
You can always then go and do other things (if necessary, turning off your video and muting yourself) until the actual start time.

  • Click on the event link (in the email(s) you received) and, if requested, sign into Zoom
  • Look for and click on the blue ‘Join Lobby’ button
  • Click ‘Join’ to join any session at the appropriate time

Moving around

The LOBBY and its CHAT should always be available, whether you’re in a session or not.

Look in your Browser in one of the Tabs OR it will be open as a Zoom Event App (look on your Taskbar for a blue Zoom task).
