Overview

The Location section allows you to create and manage event venues used throughout your event calendar. Locations can represent conference centers, hotels, exhibition halls, stadiums, parks, convention centers, universities, online meeting spaces, or any place where an event is held.

Instead of entering venue information for every event individually, you can create reusable location profiles and assign them to multiple events. Each location supports detailed address information, geographic coordinates, images, and descriptions, making it easier to display venue details consistently across your website.

Location profiles integrate with Elementor widgets, event pages, maps, shortcodes, search filters, and archive layouts.
