Your organiser posts event news and announcements in News and practical information in the Event Guide, such as venue details, downloadable documents and useful links.
Your event may call these sections something else, such as Announcements or Know Before You Go.

Some events show a Featured carousel of highlighted articles at the top of the page.
To keep an article for later, click the bookmark button in the side panel. Reading news can also count towards a gamification challenge. See How Attendees Can Play Gamification Challenges and Win Rewards.
The Event Guide groups your organiser's documents, links and information pages into categories.

Some websites don't allow themselves to be shown inside another page, so the window stays blank. Click Open in New Tab to open the page in your browser instead.
Your organiser can also add their own menu items that open a website, a formatted page or a short text. A website link opens in a new browser tab.
The Eventify app has the same news and Event Guide. Open them from the side menu. Neither has a search box or a grid and list switch in the app. To search the whole event, tap the search icon in the header.
