## Tips for great event media

**Banner image:**

* Use a high-resolution image that captures the atmosphere of your event.
* Include the event name or date as text overlay if relevant.
* Avoid images with important content near the edges — they may be cropped on mobile.

**Event video:**

* Short, energetic clips from previous events work best.
* Vertical or square format is ideal for mobile viewing.
* Add music to make the clip more engaging.

**Floor plan:**

* Use a clear, labelled diagram of your venue.
* Mark table numbers or areas that correspond to your reservation options.
* This is especially useful for events with table bookings.

## Can I add multiple images?

Currently, one banner image is supported per event. For multiple photos, consider using a collage or a high-quality hero image that best represents the event.

***

## Can I reuse media from a previous event?

Media is uploaded per event and is not shared between events. To reuse the same image, re-upload it when creating the new event.

***

## What if I need to update the media after publishing?

You can update media at any time, even after the event is published. Changes take effect immediately — new visitors will see the updated image or video straight away.
