The example journey

  1. Choose a venue
  2. Provide the date, time and attendance
  3. Add equipment, access and organiser details
  4. Review the booking request

What the team receives

A booking request with attendance, preferred time and access needs for the venue team to assess.

Make it local

Configure it with your service team.

Agree the local rules, ownership and next steps before the service is published.

Local configuration

  • Venue operator, inventory and capacity
  • Opening times, booking rules and tariffs
  • Equipment, accessibility and event requirements
  • Confirmation, deposit, cancellation and refund processes

Operational handoff

  • A venue team that confirms availability
  • A reservation adapter only if confirmed booking is offered

National and local differences

A preferred date and calculated estimate are not a reservation. Sports pitches, recurring bookings and regulated events may need a different journey.
