Why It Matters

Attendees look to your event website for where to stay.

Most attendees need a bed for the night, and many find it hard to get one near the venue. If your event page doesn’t help, they’re left searching booking sites on their own.

45%

of convention attendees use the event’s own website to plan their trip. Only 24% start with Google.
