Conventions are single or multi-day virtual experiences for your audience. They include exhibitors who have a profile with access to post content, one-to-many live sessions, and offer an opportunity to set up one-on-one meetings or live chat with convention attendees. Let's create your first convention!
Who can publish conventions?
To start, select the 'Create' button from your conventions list page.

Only admin users with permissions School Admin or Editor can publish or edit conventions.
Information you'll need
Next, fill out the basic fields for your convention, including:
name
start date and time
end date and time
timezone
a logo
a header image
Finally, add some more advanced details for exhibitors and convention registrants:
maximum live session time
maximum count of live sessions per exhibitor
registrant types allowed to register for this convention
See it live
Once you've published your convention, click the three dot menu on the newly published convention in your list of conventions, and select 'Visit Convention Site' to see what it looks like live.
What makes a good convention?
Make your convention name unique and stand out. Not only will an ambiguous name (ie, 'Convention A' or 'Event') make reporting confusing for you and your team, but your audience wants to know what they're registering for.
