What Are Events?
Events are a separate product in Birrdi that are completely independent from your simulator bays and standard reservations.
They are designed specifically to help facility owners run in-person events at their location without needing third-party ticketing tools.
Events are intentionally simple and focused.
What Events Are Used For
Events allow you to:
Take pre-payment for an event
Track attendees / ticket holders
Check in attendees when they arrive
Offer different pricing for members vs the public
Share a booking URL for signups
Common examples include:
Leagues
Tournaments
Clinics
Demo days
Member nights
Corporate or private events
Events Are Not Simulator Reservations
It’s important to understand that events:
Are not tied to simulator bays
Do not block bay time directly
Do not function like hourly reservations
Events exist solely to manage people, payments, and attendance, not bay scheduling.
Booking & Payments
Each event automatically comes with a unique booking URL.
You can:
Share the URL on your website
Send it in emails or texts
Post it on social media
Customers can use the link to:
Sign up
Pay in advance
Secure their spot
No third-party event software is required.
Member vs Public Pricing
Events support multiple pricing options, allowing you to:
Offer discounted rates to members
Charge standard pricing for non-members
Control access and availability
This makes events especially useful for member-exclusive or member-preferred experiences.
Recurring Events
Birrdi supports recurring events.
For example:
Every Saturday at noon
Weekly leagues
Monthly clinics
You configure the event once, and Birrdi automatically:
Creates the individual event dates
Accepts signups and pre-payments
Tracks attendees per date
Keep It Simple
Events are intentionally not over-engineered.
Many operators don’t regularly use their space for events — but when you do need to run one, Birrdi gives you a simple, built-in option without having to:
Create Square website products
Use external ticketing platforms
Manually track attendees
Events are there when you need them.
Final Thoughts
Events exist so you can easily:
Monetize your space beyond standard reservations
Run in-person experiences
Manage signups and payments in one place
If events aren’t part of your day-to-day operations, that’s okay — but when you need to pull that lever, Birrdi has you covered. If you have questions about whether events are right for your use case, contact support.
