Venue Photos & Gallery

Venue Owner Guide

High-quality photos are the single most important factor in attracting booking inquiries. Organisers browse dozens of venues, and compelling images are what make them stop, click, and submit a booking request. This guide covers how to upload photos and tips for capturing your venue at its best.

Uploading Photos

  1. Navigate to your venue — go to My Venues and select the venue.
  2. Click "Photos" — this opens the venue gallery manager.
  3. Upload images — click "Upload Photos" and select images from your device. You can upload multiple files at once. Accepted formats: JPG, PNG, WEBP (max 15 MB per image).
  4. Set a cover photo — your cover photo is the first image organisers see in search results. Click the star icon on your best photo to set it as the cover.
  5. Reorder photos — drag and drop photos to arrange them in the order you want organisers to see them.
  6. Add captions — describe what each photo shows (e.g. "Main hall in banquet configuration", "Rooftop terrace at sunset", "Professional AV setup").

Tips for Great Venue Photos

  • Natural light — photograph during the day with curtains/blinds open. Natural light makes spaces look larger and more inviting.
  • Multiple angles — capture each room from at least 2–3 angles to give a complete picture of the space.
  • Show different setups — photograph the venue in various configurations (empty, theatre-style, banquet, cocktail reception).
  • Include details — close-ups of unique features: chandeliers, bar area, outdoor space, stage, kitchen facilities.
  • Exterior shots — include the building entrance, parking area, and any signage so guests can find the venue easily.
  • Event in action — with permission, use photos from past events to show the venue in use (blurring faces if needed).

Tip: Venues with 10 or more professional-quality photos receive 40% more booking inquiries than those with fewer than 5 photos. If possible, hire a professional photographer for your initial listing photos — it pays for itself quickly.

Important: Only upload photos that accurately represent your venue. Misleading photos (e.g. using wide-angle lenses to exaggerate space, or showing the venue in an unrealistic setup) can lead to negative reviews and booking disputes.
