You can title the event area however you wish, but make sure it is descriptive, letting the event team know the area you are referring to.

Step 3: Click the name of the area to open up the area you created

Step 4: Add a Gate

Gates are used as entrance points to your access areas. If you have four ways an attendee can enter an area, you must have four gates to provide accurate data for each entry point.

Example: If you have a room with two entrances, one on the left-hand side and one on the right-hand side of the room, you must add two gates.
