Some operators may remember seeing Birrdi Events in the past and wonder where it went. The short answer: the feature hasn’t disappeared — it has simply been moved to an advanced product that is enabled on request.
Birrdi Events is not shown in the standard operator interface because most facilities do not need this level of functionality. If you are interested in using it, your Customer Success Manager can enable it for your account.
First — Don’t Confuse This With Custom Events
Birrdi already includes Custom Events, which are available to all operators.
Custom Events are used to block time on your reservation sheet. Operators commonly use them for:
Private parties
League nights
Maintenance blocks
Staff training
Reserving bays for internal use
Custom Events simply reserve time on the tee sheet and prevent customers from booking during that time.
What Birrdi Events Actually Are
Birrdi Events is a separate product designed for facilities that want to host structured events where customers sign up ahead of time.
This product allows you to:
Create a booking link for an event
Allow customers to register and pre-pay
Manage attendees
Check people in at the event
Examples of when this might be useful:
Tournaments
Clinics or lessons with limited spots
Hosted events or competitions
Ticketed experiences at your facility
Do Most Facilities Need This?
In most cases, no.
Standard reservations combined with Custom Events handle the majority of operational needs.
However, if you ever find yourself looking for event management software like TripleSeat, Birrdi offers a built-in alternative that can cover many basic event-hosting needs.
