Digital signage software for events

Digital signage for
events and trade shows

Q: How is digital signage used at events?

For agendas, wayfinding, sponsor messages, social media walls and announcements at trade shows, conferences, concerts and festivals.

Q: Can I use screens for a single event?

Yes. Plans are billed per screen by the hour, so you only pay for the time your screens are in use.

Q: What if the venue’s internet goes down?

Content is stored on the player and keeps playing offline. Changes arrive as soon as the connection is back.

Q: Can I show a social media wall?

Yes. Add Instagram hashtags, Facebook posts or an RSS feed to a playlist.

Q: Can I prepare content in advance and have it switch at the right moment?

Yes. Schedule playlists by date and time, so the welcome screen, the agenda and the closing message each play when they should.

Show agendas, directions, sponsor messages and last-minute changes on the screens you already have. Manage all from one dashboard.
