How to create virtual event rooms

Create a more engaging event by adding rooms to your virtual event. Read our blog post to discover creative ways to OnJam Rooms.

1. Edit your event and select the 'Rooms' tab.

2. Click on + Add a room

3. Add a custom background image

Make your room unique and on brand by uploading a background image. Click 'Choose an image' and select an image from your computer. Max dimensions: 1920px * 1080px

4. Enter a name for you room e.g. "Artist meet & greet"

Maximum of 20 characters - keep it short and memorable. 

5. Specify a start date

Set when the room will be open - this can be any time before or after the main stage. 

You could create a pre-show or post show meeting. Alternatively, create a room that's always open and can be accessed by ticket holders before the event begins - this is a good opportunity to display another video e.g. your latest music video from YouTube.

6. Select a time for when the room opens

7. Select a room type

We currently support 3 different room types and more will be created in the future.

Group chat - this is like Zoom, but embedded into your event. Each room supports a maximum of 1000 participants. You can choose to enable/disable the audience cameras. 

Video - this is a recorded video that you've uploaded to OnJam. It will be played on-demand once the room opens.

Custom embed - this can be anything that you can embed with an iframe e.g. a YouTube or Vimeo video, a Typeform survey, a game...the possibilities are endless!

8. Click on Choose icon

Customise your event further by choosing an icon to represent your room.

9. Click on + Add a room

Add as many rooms as you want - there's no limit!
