Good event management software takes the admin out of running an event. Event Star brings the whole job into one place: you build the event page, sell tickets or take registrations, check people in with QR codes, print name badges and send invoices, without copying data between five different tools.
Sell tickets, fill the room and run the day from one platform, whether it is a 30-person workshop or a 3 000-delegate conference.
What event management software should do for you
Most organisers start with a spreadsheet, a payment link and a group chat. It works until the event grows. Then the guest list is out of date, payments don't match registrations, and the queue at the door is 40 people long. Event management software fixes that by keeping one record per attendee from the moment they sign up until they walk out with a certificate.
- One guest list. Every ticket, registration, payment, check-in and badge is tied to the same person.
- Money that reconciles. Orders, refunds and invoices match the payments in your gateway.
- A fast door. Staff scan QR codes on any phone, and guests can check themselves in at a kiosk.
- Less admin after the event. Attendance, certificates and reports are ready when the doors close.
Everything in one event management platform
Ticketing and registration
Create free or paid tickets, early-bird and day tickets, group bookings and custom registration forms. See our event ticketing software and event registration software pages for the detail.
Event websites, agendas and speakers
Every event gets its own public page with the agenda, tracks, speaker profiles and venue details, ready to share on social media and found by Google.
Check-in, badges and certificates
Scan tickets at the door with our event check-in app, print name badges on demand and issue attendance certificates when the event ends.
Exhibitors and sponsors
Give exhibitors their own portal, staff passes and lead capture, so sponsors can measure what the event was worth to them.
Invoices and reporting
Send a tax invoice for every order, follow sales as they happen and export the numbers your finance team asks for.
Who uses Event Star
Event Star suits anyone who runs events often enough to feel the pain of doing it by hand: conference organisers, associations and professional bodies, corporate events teams, training providers, expos and event agencies that run events for several clients.
Why one platform beats five tools
Every tool you add is another login, another export and another place for a guest's details to go out of date. With one platform, a name corrected online is correct on the badge, the invoice and the certificate. Your team learns one system, and your guests get one consistent experience from the first email to the last. Read more about who we are.

Frequently asked questions
What is event management software?
Event management software is a platform that handles the admin of running an event in one place: the event page, ticket sales or registration, payments, guest communication, check-in at the door, badges and reporting.
Is Event Star only for large conferences?
No. Event Star works for a 30-person workshop as well as a multi-day conference or expo. You switch on the parts you need, such as badges or exhibitors, when the event calls for them.
How do guests pay for tickets?
Guests pay online by card or bank payment through the payment gateway connected to your account, and receive their ticket and invoice straight away.
How is attendee data protected?
Each organiser's data is kept separate, consent is captured on registration forms and you can export or delete an attendee's data on request, which helps you meet data protection laws.
Can I try Event Star before I commit?
Yes. Book a demo and we will walk you through the platform with your own event, then set you up with a trial.
