Creating a host
A host on Jambo is the public-facing person or entity organizing the event, the physical venue that the event is located at, or both.
All hosts on Jambo have a public landing page where users can easily see their upcoming events in one place.
A venue is a host that has a physical location. This allows traveling organizers, such as artists or performers, to have their own profiles and host events at venues that they don't necessarily control. It also allows upcoming events to show up on both the artist's host page, as well as the venue's for extra marketability!
Each physical place can only be associated with 1 host in Jambo.
Here are some examples:
- Bar Louie UCF is a host with a physical location. This means it can put on its own events, but it can also be the venue for other hosts' events, such as a live DJ.
- DJ Mike would be a host without a physical location. This means they can host events at other venues, but they cannot be the venue for any event.
In order to create new events under a particular host, your organization must have ownership of it.
You don't have to have ownership of the venues your events are at. Anybody can create an event at another venue.
If you own the venue, you can enable Event Approval in the host's settings to manually review requests for events from other hosts to be published at your venue.
If you create a new host, your organization will automatically become the owner of it.
This explicit ownership prevents other people from creating events under your name.
It's possible that a host/venue that belongs to you already exists on Jambo.
If it doesn't already belong to another organization, you can claim it.
