What is Arena Virtual and Hybrid Events?

Arena is a virtual and hybrid events platform presented as simple, scalable, and customisable - everything that event organisers need.

Each event on Arena is built around a set of Rooms: Lobby, Stage, Video Breakout, and Audio Breakout. Each room includes an interactive live video and chat stream, and can hold from 2 to 100,000 attendees. Users can have an unlimited number of rooms in each event. Arena also gives the user a registration platform out of the box, with features like custom ticket types and custom attendee information. Users can also use their own platform and upload attendees in bulk.

Arena integrates with online broadcast studios, such as ReStream and StreamYard, or the user can plug in Zoom, YouTube, Vimeo and many other video sources. Or, the user can connect with custom RTMP or HLS.

Arena is presented as a fit for anything from a 20 person internal update event, to a 100,000 global conference. It is a solution for branded webinars, conferences, trade shows, exhibitions. Arena can also be used for online team building.

Arena is designed by event organisers, for event organisers. It includes chat moderation, passwordless sign in, GDPR compliant data policy and other features to make running a world-class event easy.
