Creating and Managing Event Announcements | GoExpo

Create an Annoucement

Announcements allow hosts to send messages to all Attendees and/or Exhibitors. Announcements display on user and email dashboards once an Announcement's Display At date has passed.   

In your event's dashboard:

  • In the navigation menu, hover over announcements and select Announcements. 
  • Select New Announcement. 

  • Fill out the required fields. 
    • Title, Display At, Visible To, and Announcement are required. 
    • Please note the dates and times for announcements to be sent (displayed) should be set for the time zone of your show. 
    • The Visible To dropdown lets you select if this announcement appears to Exhibitors, Attendees, or both. 
  • If applicable, select Push to Mobile. 
  • Select Save. 

At the Display At time and date, the announcement will be pushed to attendees and/or exhibitors. If you would like to post an announcement immediately, select a time and date that has already passed.

The announcement will display on the Home page in the order of the Date and Time, with the most recent time at the top. Attendees and exhibitors can also find them by hovering over Messages in the navigation menu and selecting Announcements.
