Talli

Venue map and signs

A venue map in every attendee's pocket.

Attendees open a map of the venue on their phone, find an exhibitor, a room or the restrooms, and follow the walking route from the main entrance, step-free when they ask for it. For the day itself, Talli prints directional signs and setup sheets from the same plan.

How do attendees find their way around?

Common problems with getting around a venue, and what Talli does about each one.

Signs do not match the map

Each outside entrance gets its own directional sign, with arrows to registration, the rooms, the exhibitors and the restrooms, made from the same walking routes as the map. Arrows are labeled in the event's main language and up to two others, and a QR code opens the map.

Setup crews work from different plans

Choose Print setup sheets on the event's Floor plan page, and the setup sheet of every layout the event uses prints in one go, each on its own page.

People cannot find a booth or the restrooms

Type a name in Find an exhibitor or room, such as a booth number or restrooms, and choose Find. The place is outlined in yellow, and a dashed line shows the way from the main entrance with the walking time.

Routes ignore people who cannot use stairs

Choose Accessible to see accessible seating, the elevator and other step-free places, and every route then avoids stairs and doors with steps. Other filters show Exhibitors, Food and water or Restrooms.

The map leaves some attendees out

The map comes in the attendee's language, and Places on the map lists every place by name, so it works with a screen reader. Anyone with the link can open it, with no account and no ticket.

How it works

The map is there once the event is published and uses at least one layout.

Plan the rooms

Give the venue rooms on its plan and use at least one layout for the event, then publish the event.

Attendees open the map

Attendees choose Venue map next to the venue's address on the registration page, or under their ticket.

Print the signs

Open the event, choose Floor plan, then Directional signs, and choose Print. Each sign fills a US letter page in your brand color.

Print the setup sheets

On the same Floor plan page, choose Print setup sheets, then Print all.

Frequently asked questions

Do attendees need an account to see the map?

No. Anyone with the link sees the venue map of a published event. It needs no account and no ticket.

Does the map show who is coming?

No. The map never shows attendees, registrations or anything about who is coming.

Which languages are on the signs?

Each arrow is labeled in the event's main language, with up to two of its other languages beneath, so signs stay readable from a distance. The QR code opens the map in every language of the event.

How are walking times worked out?

Walking times assume 80 ft a minute along the route and are rounded to the minute, never less than one.

Do exhibitors appear by name?

Yes, when the event shows its exhibitors on the website. Otherwise booths show their numbers. Open booth page appears once a booth page is approved.
