Promote your event, increase ticket sales, create a sense of community, and engage attendees with an event social wall
No credit card required.
An event social wall is an engagement tool that allows you to collect content posted by attendees and speakers using your event’s hashtag. If your event is private, a social wall will help you connect with your attendees by making it easy for them to upload content directly on the wall. The event wall acts as a social hub and encourages interaction between attendees, speakers, sponsors, and fans.
It enables you to curate the content and display it on a screen, embed it on your event website or live stream, or show it before and after each session.
Collect content from your event’s hashtag and the event’s official social media profiles. Choose which social media channels you want to get content from and select the posts you want to display using advanced moderation features.
With the Walls.io Direct Posts feature, you can also collect content beyond social media, by allowing attendees to upload image and text messages directly on your social media wall. This is great for internal or private events.
You can easily customize your wall’s appearance using the Walls.io Style Editor. No tech skills are needed! Change the background, text, and tile border color with just a few clicks. Your social media wall will be fully responsive and will always look great.
When you're ready to share your wall with the world, you can either embed it on an event platform or website and/or display it on digital signage. Unlike similar solutions, Walls.io offers unlimited embeds. You can also display the wall on as many screens as you like, even on multiple locations if needed.
Here are 30+ examples of how international brands from different industries use event walls to engage their online and offline events.
Many events severely lack engagement and interaction. This eBook will show you ways to engage your attendees before, during, and after your events. When used right, these strategies can make your event more lively, more interactive, and more enjoyable.
Polls are a great tool to drive engagement, encouraging your website visitors to voice their opinions. Used on social walls, Polls will help with voting (e.g. in a contest), help you break the ice at meetings, and collect data on your landing pages. Learn more about the social wall live Polls feature.
A social wall bridges the gap between offline and online communication at events. Collect social media posts from attendees and prominently display them on a social wall at your venue. Make the same social media stream part of your live streaming experience, so you can engage and connect everyone during your event.
Social walls are not just for attendees. People worldwide who couldn’t attend in-person get to follow your event via the social wall. They get a chance to witness at least part of your event online. Your message and brand are more likely to reach more people when spread via social media.
Whether you’re organizing a BarCamp, a conference, or an internal company event, a social wall can add a sense of community to your event. It’s a way for people to connect with you and each other. Add depth to the event experience with a social wall that encourages audience participation.
Monetize your social wall by giving your sponsors the option to buy ad space on your wall. Show their ads as Sponsored Posts to give them some extra exposure during your event.
The event itself is just a fraction of the whole process. Speakers start preparing long before an event and share their progress on social media. Capture that free promotion for your event on a social wall and use it to engage with your attendees. Let them know about the social wall and encourage them to use your hashtags.
After the event is over, a social wall is a great way for everyone to look back. Use the tail end of one event to start promoting the next one. Get current participants to sign up for the following event as soon as possible by keeping them engaged with what’s going on. An embedded social wall on your event page will give visitors a first impression of your event and convince them to buy a ticket for the next one.
Some attendees might feel more comfortable posting images or comments on your social wall from their mobile phones. That’s why we give you the option to add a QR code to any Direct Posts button, which you can also print and display anywhere. Your community will only have to scan the QR code, click the link on their screen, and upload any photo or text post.
Make your hybrid events more interactive by displaying attendees’ social media posts both online and on-site.
Walls.io partners with multiple hybrid and virtual event platforms to bring a social element to online and hybrid events. Give attendees the spotlight, encourage live conversations, and raise awareness for your brand with our integrations.
We'll help you find the best setup and plan for your brand.
