Venue owners, general managers, and operations leads who want bookings, contracts, deposits, planning details, and day-of ops in one Nigall workspace—not only organizers booking your space.

1. Create your account¶

2. Unlock Venue Management¶

Details: Billing & Subscriptions

3. Create your venue profile¶

Open /events/venues/create/.
Complete the wizard:
- Basic info & photos

Full guide: Venue Management

4. Respond to bookings¶

Organizers find you at /events/venues/directory/.
Open each booking at /events/venues/bookings/<id>/.
Advance the pipeline: quote → accept → mark contract/deposit → confirm → walkthrough → load-in → event day → inspection → close.

5. Link ops to events¶

When an organizer links your venue to their event, location and check-in defaults flow into the event record. If you also host events on Nigall, use organizer modules (attendees, volunteers, program) for staffing and guest flow.
