Set a Seat Limit

This help doc explains how to set a maximum number of attendees for an RSVP event by enabling the seat limit feature. Setting a seat limit restricts the number of people who can RSVP and allows you to display a custom message when the limit is reached. Follow these steps to set a seat limit for your event.

How to Enable a Seat Limit

To enable a seat limit on an RSVP event, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Event page for the specific event where you want to set a seat limit.
  2. Scroll down to find the RSVP and settings section.
  3. In this section, you will see several tabs; click on the Seats tab.

In the Seats tab:

  • Choose the "Limited to" option, and enter the maximum number of seats (or attendees) you want to allow for the event.
  • Type a message in the provided field to be shown on the event page when the seat limit is reached. This message will appear to anyone who tries to RSVP after the limit is met, informing them that the event is at capacity. Make sure the message clearly explains why they cannot RSVP.

What Happens When the Seat Limit is Reached?

If the seat limit for your event is reached, any additional user who attempts to RSVP will see the custom message you entered in the Seats tab. This message informs them that the event is full and that no additional RSVPs are being accepted.

For example, you could enter a message such as: “This event has reached its maximum capacity, and we are no longer accepting RSVPs. Thank you for your interest!”


By following these steps, you can effectively control the number of attendees for your event and provide clear communication to users once the limit is reached.
