What it does
Promoting an event online means presenting a lot of information at once: who is speaking, when sessions run, where the venue is, who the sponsors are and how to get a ticket. YOY gives each of those its own place. It includes templates for schedule, speakers, venues and clients pages, along with ticket sales and sponsor sections, so visitors can find what they need without digging. Eight homepage designs give you different starting points for a large congress, a small business meetup or a creative arts seminar.
Setup starts with a one-click demo importer that loads pre-built demos and content, which you then edit to fit your event. The theme works with Gutenberg and WPBakery Page Builder for drag-and-drop editing, and the layouts are responsive and retina ready. Five blog styles cover news and event updates, and there are contact and about pages for sharing your story. The design also adapts to other kinds of sites, including creative agencies, weddings, fashion portfolios and art blogs.
